Bugibba Travel Advice

Best time to go to Bugibba

Malta is a great year-round destination. Even in winter, temperatures are still pretty mild, averaging around 15°C. That said, the best months for sun are from July to September, when average temperatures hit the 30°C mark. August peaks at more like 40°C, so unsurprisingly it’s also the busiest month of the year. It’s usually pretty dry, as well – most of Malta’s rain falls in the winter months. Spring and autumn are pretty decent, too, with the mercury reaching around 20-25°C.

Passports and Visas

British citizens don’t need a visa to enter Malta but must have a valid passport. You can check your passport’s valid for Malta using our handy tool. For the most up-to-date passport and visa info, visit www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/malta/entry-requirements.

Don't forget to arrange your travel money and insurance before you go.

Health and safety

You should take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance to cover you while you’re away. If you’re travelling to the EU and you apply for a card now, you'll get a new UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) instead of an EHIC. This entitles you to emergency medical treatment on the same terms as Maltese nationals. It won’t, however, cover you for medical repatriation, ongoing medical treatment or non-urgent treatment. Visit www.nhs.uk/ehic for full details on what it covers. You do not need to apply for a GHIC if you already have an EHIC. Your EHIC remains valid in the EU until it expires. An EHIC or GHIC is free of charge. For the latest health and safety info, visit www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/malta/health
