SUMMER AT RAMLA
With temperatures searing into the high 30s from June to September, the island is a sun-lover’s dream—and Ramla Bay Resort is one of the best places to make the most of it. You’ll find a full range of summer-ready experiences: from peaceful poolside lounging to jet-ski thrills, from shaded sea dips to barefoot beach walks. If the sun is shining, we promise you’ll never want to leave.
The Main Pools – Three Ways to Unwind
Outdoor Seawater Pools – (These pools are not heated)
-
Adults-Only Infinity Pool
Elevated and serene, with wide-open views for those seeking silence and stillness.
-
Two Family-Friendly Pools
Perfect for floating, splashing, and soaking up the summer with loved ones.
-
Kids’ Splash Pool
A safe, shallow spot for little ones to enjoy the water in their own playful zone.
The Sandy Beach – A Pocket of Sand
Our tiny sandy corner of the bay offers just enough space to dip your toes, wade in the shallows, or enjoy the feeling of sand underfoot before the sea. Intimate and modest in size, but perfect for that little barefoot moment, calm paddling, or basking in the golden light.
Small, intimate, and steps from the main resort.
Rocky Cove Lounging – Nature’s Front Row
Rocky Shoreline by the Open Sea
For those in search of solitude or a more natural setting, our rocky coastline offers loungers set in twos placed right at the water’s edge. Here, the rhythm of the waves replaces background music, and the horizon stretches endlessly before you. The rocks provide direct access into the open Mediterranean, perfect for a refreshing swim or a moment of stillness as the sea laps at the shore. Peaceful, scenic, and designed for guests who prefer to slow down, listen, and let the sea set the pace.
Crystal Cove – Nature’s Hidden Inlet
Just a few paces from the rocky area, you’ll find a natural rock inlet where the water is crystal clear and the seabed shimmers in the sun. It’s a quiet corner of the Mediterranean, perfect for a refreshing dip or simply admiring the play of light on the rocks below.
Jacuzzi with a View – Sky Meets Sea
Next to the Indoor Pool & Spa
Step from the calm of our spa into a bubbling embrace under the open sky. The outdoor jacuzzi is perched to frame the vast Mediterranean horizon, where the blue of the water blends seamlessly with the blue of the sea beyond. It is the perfect spot for a sunset soak and nothing but the sound of the waves to keep you company. Whether after a swim in the indoor pool, a treatment in the spa, or simply to let time slow down, this is where relaxation feels infinite.
Sunset Moments by the Sea
As the sun melts into the horizon, the water glows gold and laughter carries across the bay. Drinks in hand, toes in the sand, and friends gathered close—this is the spirit of summer at Ramla Bay. A place where every sunset feels like a celebration, and every evening begins with a toast to the sea.
Sea, Sun & Serenity
The summer season is definitely the most popular time to visit Malta.
Where every dip tells a different story.
Enjoy our on-site Water Sports Centre, where you can hire a pedalo or jet ski, or head to our Scuba Diving Centre for an underwater adventure. Then dry off across three outdoor pools, unwind by the rocky shore, or settle into the soft sand of our private beach. All facilities are open in summer, subject to weather.
BEST SUMMER ACTIVITIES
BEACH IT
Malta has a few gorgeous sandy beaches (including our own petite sandy beach here at the Resort, which is currently not available). If you’d like to explore further, nearby beaches include the expansive Mellieha Bay Beach, which is a short drive from the hotel, or Paradise Bay and Golden Bay. We recommend a sunset walk, followed by an after-dark swim.
GO BELOW THE SURFACE
Malta consistently ranks as one of the Top Three diving destinations in the world, so it is a super place to try scuba. Our own on-site PADI diving school will be able to guide you – whether you are trying out your aqua-lungs for the first time, or have lots of experience under the sea.
SEE THE SIGHTS
Malta has lots of wonderful things to see, and one of the best ways to do that is aboard an Open Top bus, which will take you on a roundtrip. The northern tour drives close by the Resort, and will take you to many of the highlights in this region of the island.
SEE A FESTA
As a Catholic country, many Maltese traditions revolve around the church, and festas are among them. Throughout the summer, these events are held in honour of each village’s patron saint, with beautifully-decorated streets, lively processions, and vibrant fireworks displays. Visitors are most welcome, so have a chat to our Concierge about where this week’s festas are taking place.
WALK ALONG THE PROMENADE
Because summertime weather can get so hot, many people prefer to stay indoors or by the pool during the day and to head out later in the evening. In fact, that’s when many places come alive – including promenades like the one from Bugibba to St Paul’s Bay, or St Julian’s to Qawra. We recommend walking here after sunset, and stopping en-route for an ice-cream or drink.
DINE AL FRESCO
One of the nicest things about the warm weather is dining outdoors. Here at the Resort, most of our restaurants have outdoor dining space, so do try to book a table on the terrace or overlooking the pool. Mellieha – the nearest town – also has some lovely outdoor restaurants, where you can dine under the stars. Ask our Concierge for recommendations, and they will happily book a table for you.
