Climate In Malta

The islands enjoy a daily average of around 12 hours of sunshine in summer going down to five to six hours in midwinter.

It makes for a landscape that switches from green and verdant to dry and parched in the height of the summer.

The weather system in Malta is dictated by the Mediterranean Sea it sits on.

Climate in Malta is on par with what you would find in  Italy, southern  Spain,  and elsewhere.

You see wind and quite a bit of rain in winter, but, come summer, you can bank on waking up to the sunshine every morning.

Climate In Malta: Temperatures

Temperatures in Malta are stable, with an annual mean of 64° Fahrenheit. Monthly averages range from 54°F to 88° F. Relative humidity is consistently high and rarely falls below 40%.

Between October and March, Malta gets nearly three-fourths of its total annual rainfall.

It depends, of course, on individual taste. If you’re a fan of the sunshine but still like the idea of living somewhere with seasons,  Malta  has one of the best climates you’ll find anywhere.

In short, Malta has sandy beaches and crystal-clear water, hills, mountains, ancient villages, vineyards, and Roman ruins. Plus, living in Malta you wouldn’t need a car, as the small country has a fairly developed bus system for intra-island travel and plenty of ferries to take you off island.
