Decided to write a few things about the island of Malta because I noticed there's not much on the forum and it may be of use to anyone who is interested in going there. I'm a local, born and bred and I'll try to give as clear a picture as possible listing both the good points and the bad points.
Malta is a small island just 316km square(and fucking over-populated). It's actually composed of 3 islands but for playa purposes, only Malta actually matters since one island is home to hordes of jesusfreaks and the other to hordes of rats!
Malta has a long history of foreign visitors/rulers etc. This has made it very rich in culture and also ethnically. You can find girls of all tastes and flavours here although they are predominantly black haired with brown eyes. Think Italians and Spanish. We're pretty close to both Sicily and Tunisia and 120 km from Libya but have no problems with the Libya situation. There's a bit of a problem with illegal immigrants from Africa but if you're black you won't be subject to racism from locals. Unfortunately I've seen some Arabs attack black people. It's rare, and the crime rate is one of the lowest in the world but I feel it's best to say everything even at the risk of sounding slightly alarmist. In reality you have almost nothing to worry about security-wise. Oh, watch out, we drive on the left!
Malta has turned itself into a clubbing haven with practically each club being free(except for when there's some big dj in town) and alcohol relatively cheap. Best days to party are usually weekends but be warned, on Saturdays teenagers descend on Paceville(the party city) in droves and practically pack that shit up. It get really crowded on Sat but Friday and Sunday are good bets and there's always the odd party going on anyway.
I can practically guarantee that blond guys make a killing here. A Swedish friend with no game whatsover(absolutely stoned out of his mind) managed to pull within hours of landing. Blond hair makes you stand out because it's rare among locals.
Black guys may be successful in some cases as may Latin guys but generally things are not always in their favour. Some local guys dye their hair blond in an attempt at peacocking. These 2 races may however be very successful with tourists who just want a fuck because as we all know girls on holiday have looser pussies and are game for a cock or ten.
Transport sucks unless you live close to the party areas. In July a new company will take over and since it's a German one, transport is probably gonna be running with ruthless efficiency. Will be a bit more expensive but hopefully the price will be justified.
Weed sucks here and I don't even bother. This ain't Barcelona or Amsterdam so if you really need pot, be ready to fork out more, for inferior quality.
Fights may occur without warning in the testosterone charged clubs. Be aware and roll with buddies. It doesn't matter what race or colour you are. You may end up in a fight just because some douchebag went to the club specifically for the thrill of fighting. A very strong Russian friend of mine got beat up last weekend for no reason as he was returning from the toilets.
Malta has the 2nd shortest people in Europe(after Portugal). At 6 feet I'm actually considered to be a tall guy here. In Holland I'd be average. We're also the most obese nation in Europe. I think the Americans beat us in obesity overall, possibly even the British. Although this means the average girl ain't much of a stunner, in general girls here have quite big tits and can be extremely good looking in some cases. Given the small population(around 410,000), the good looking ones are often taken and armed with quite an attitude. Be an arrogant son of a bitch.
Sports ain't big here so if you roll to the beach looking buff and cut you'll likely immediately DHV over almost everyone else. I've managed to pull just by being lean and athletic. Again since there's so many fatasses, use it to your advantage.
Catholic faith used to be a big deal and the church still has a scary amount of power but just a few days ago a referendum on divorce was won and the country will now introduce divorce(very backwards when it comes to such civil rights). This would have been unthinkable just 10 or even 5 years ago. Young people in general don't give a fuck about religion and will be happy to open their legs as long as it can be kept discreet. Words get around fast on such a small island and the usual slut vs perceived slut laws apply.
Currency is euro and language is Maltese and English. Maltese is a mixture of Arabic, English and Italian. All people can pretty much speak both. You'll find no problems speaking English. Most people can also speak Italian because we're close to Sicily.
Malta ain't a place where you wanna live permanently(in fact even a local like me travels every chance I get!) It's too damn small, much smaller than a major or even medium US city. Still it's got more charm and history than you can shake a stick at and it's worth a visit if you've never been. Most people who visit here fall in love with the place and they don't even have a fraction of the game some of the playas here have!
I hope I covered most of the important aspects. I may have overlooked something or other so if this is the case let me know and I'll fill you in.
