Top Nature in Southern region

I recommend bringing a book or a snack to enjoy while you're there; it's such a peaceful spot and you can really soak in the beauty. I did that, it was a great way to relax!

If you're on a tight budget, skip the overpriced cafes nearby. There’s a little bakery just a short walk away with delish pastries and coffee at much better prices!

Make sure to visit the Upper Barrakka Gardens too; the views over the Grand Harbour are stunning! I almost missed it and I would have regretted it.

I recommend checking the weather forecast before you go. I went on a cloudy day and it made the beach vibes way less fun than I expected.

My advice is to explore a bit! The cliffs on the side of Golden Bay are stunning, and taking a short hike is totally worth it – just wear good shoes!

I recommend taking the bus instead of driving. Parking can be a nightmare and the bus ride offers some nice views, plus it saves you the stress of finding a spot!

Take some time to explore the quiet corners of the gardens; I found a lovely spot with a nice view of the Grand Harbour. It’s not just about the main paths.

Grab some snacks or drinks before you head to Hastings Gardens. There's not much around, and the little café can be pricey and often has long lines.
