Natural Attractions<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n

Although the Maltese Islands may lack certain features such as mountains, rivers and forests which prevail in other countries, topographically speaking, the islands have much to offer.<\/p>\n

Sheer cliffs made of layer upon layer of sedimentary rock rise sharply from the water, especially on the western side of both Malta and Gozo. The latter is characterised by flat-topped hills and lush green valleys, which are covered in multi-coloured wild flowers in spring before turning golden brown in the hot summer months.<\/p>\n

In Malta you’ll find here are plenty of natural attractions to view or visit. The Inland Sea<\/strong> and Fungus Rock<\/strong> – two natural wonders located within a few metres from each other in Dwejra on Gozo – are absolute must-sees. There are also caves and grottos with interesting rock formations to discover.<\/p>\n

The natural attractions on the Maltese Islands are not found only above ground but also continue underwater<\/strong>. So snorkelers and divers can find some of the most bizarre landscapes of the Mediterranean in the sea surrounding Malta, Gozo and Comino.<\/p>\n
