Ferries to Malta All the ferry companies on Mr Ferry!
The archipelago of the Maltese islands is located in the heart of the Mediterranean south of the Sicilian coast and consists of the three main islands Malta, Gozo and Comino and the other smaller islands Cominotto, Manoel, Filfola and the island of San Paolo.
Malta is the largest island and is home to the capital Valletta. Its long and exciting history makes Malta a very popular travel destination. Many of the monuments and places of historical and cultural interest on the island are recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Its geographical location in the center of the Mediterranean has made Malta an important port of call for trade, passengers and cruises.
Malta with its wonderful sea is also a real paradise for lovers of diving, nature and tranquility. Many ferry connections to Malta are offered from Sicily due to its proximity to the large Italian island, and the crossings are operated by the two shipping companies Grimaldi Lines and Virtuferries.
