Surfing in Malta 2024-2025

Surfing in Malta is really good, because the sea is always in charge. Here you can catch a one-in-a-thousand wave that takes you by surprise.

The most popular surf spots in Malta are situated in the south (St. Thomas Bay), in the north-west (Ghajn Tuffieha and Golden Bay) and Ghallis Point in the north. It is worth to noting that Gozo is the busiest spot with surfers. Each of these areas differs by the wind direction and speed, and by the varied coastline. As Malta is entirely dependent on the wind, so the most favourable period for surfing is during the winter months—from October to March. Advanced surfers prefer Ghajn Tuffieha and officiously call it "the capital of surfing in Malta." The sea temperature here is always comfortable, but you still need a wetsuit for the colder months.
