Spring and
autumn are the best times to visit Malta and Gozo. Conditions
are perfect between Easter and mid-June, when the weather is
pleasantly warm, but not too hot; beaches and resorts are
relatively un crowded, and
accommodation is cheaper and easier to find than in the high
season (mid-June to end-August). Conditions are once more ideal
from the end of August until the end of November as the season
winds down.
