Despite the strong winds, rain-induced traffic and flying roofs, the Maltese islands have their own particular charm when it comes to the colder months of the year. And what better way to show it than by taking a trip down your collective Instagram feeds. 

1. You’re guaranteed an empty beach for your picnic

Wine and ħobż biż-żejt not included. 

2. Countryside walking takes on a whole new level of pretty

Greener, better, chiller, quieter.

3. Nighttime shots make for a killer Instagram feed

Just don’t stand in the middle of a thunderstorm and you’ll be fine.

4. Stormy days make for more indoor exploring

You’ll never know what you might learn when you walk into that fancy-looking building.

5. Rainy days make you settle into that growing Christmas spirit

Just don’t set your Christmas lights up in August. Unless your name is Joyce Byers

6. Rainbows make us all warm and fuzzy inside

Double rainbows make us believe in unicorns.

7. Autumn means the start of every festival imaginable

BirguFest, Notte Bianca, Chocolate Festivals, you name it.

Besides, that greenery though…

9. Al fresco dining finally means al fresco

Minus a couple hundred cockroaches roaming the streets of summer.

10. It’s no longer inappropriate to drink hot beverages six times a day

Break out the tinsel, the flashing lights and the loud garlands.

Take that Oxford Street.
