About Malta International Airport

Malta International Airport (MLA), also known as Valletta Airport or Luqa Airport, is the island’s only international airport and the hub of Maltese tourism.

First Time Driving in Malta? Here’s What You Need to Know!

Exploring Malta by car is one of the best ways to discover the island’s hidden beaches, ancient villages, and stunning coastal views — but before you hit the road, it’s good to know the local rules to stay safe and stress-free.

🛣️ Key Traffic Tips for Driving in Malta:

• Drive on the Left – Just like in the UK! Keep left and overtake on the right.

• Use Dipped Headlights at All Times – Even during the day, headlights must be on.

• Rush Hour Awareness – Roads can get busy, especially around Valletta and Sliema. Plan ahead!

• Hands-Free Only – You can take calls, but only if your device is fully integrated into the car. No touching while driving!

• Quiet Hours – Honking is not allowed in built-up areas between 11:00 PM and 6:00 AM unless absolutely necessary.

🌟 Pro Tip:

Roundabouts are common in Malta — traffic flows clockwise, so give way to traffic coming from the right.

Driving in Malta may feel different at first, but with a little preparation, you’ll be cruising confidently through charming stone streets and along scenic coastal roads in no time!

Drive safe — and enjoy every mile of your Maltese adventure.
