As temperatures plummet and the nights grow short, thousands of travellers are browsing for destinations where they can catch a dose of winter sun.<\/p>\n

This beautiful island town in the Mediterranean gets 10 hours of sunlight even in the Winter with mild temperatures and stunning historical architecture.<\/p>\n

Valletta, Malta makes for a great base to explore the island for travellers looking for adventure – the island itself offers rural retreats while the capital makes for an incredible city break.<\/p>\n

Perhaps best of all, temperatures can hover in the mid-20s even in December offering an escape from the Winter cold.<\/p>\n

This weekend, the temperature will hit a high of 24C on Friday dropping to a balmy low of only 20C. Saturday will be much of the same before the temperature drops to 19C where it hovers for much of the week.<\/p>\n

Tiny Valletta is great for exploring in the mild weather, with many of its 16th-century buildings constructed by the Knights Hospitaller who ruled the island until 1798.<\/p>\n

The winding streets are steeped in history, with hidden gardens and top museums on offer.<\/p>\n

Valletta was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980 – it has 320 monuments in just .21 square miles of space and is the European Union\u2019s smallest capital.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also home to fantastic Maltese cuisine with low-key sandwich shops, bustling dinner spots and, of course, seafood restaurants.<\/p>\n
