The Hotel Fortina Spa Resort offers 4 star accommodation right in the heart of
Malta, opposite the beautiful historic walled city of Valletta. Not only convenient for the many sights Malta has to offer but also next door to the Oxygene Dive Centre.
Malta is just a short flight from the UK and Tony Backhurst Scuba Travel offer daily departures from Gatwick for long weekends or 7 night holidays to suit different timetables and budgets. This makes it a great place for dive students to complete their Open Water courses - once you have the Academics and pool session under your belt why not complete your course in style in one of Maltas beautiful, calm sheltered bays. This is what diving is all about after all!
Malta is also a fantastic place for those certified divers that want a few days away with their buddies or dive club in warmer water with clearer visability than they get at home.
The diving is among some of the best in Europe with visibility reaching 25-30 metres and water temperatures that climb to 28c. Malta strategic position in the Med means it is now home to plenty of wrecks – bomber planes, fighter planes, submarines, destroyers and much more. The underwater caverns and formations form spectacular landscapes with a healthy marine life including nudibranchs, barracudas, jacks, breams and sometimes John Dorys and even seahorses. If the wartime wrecks are not enough new wrecks are being continuously added – The Rozi and the Um el Faroud being 2 examples of scuttled wrecks that have created artificial reefs.
With a wealth of sightseeing opportunities, pavement cafes and shops in Sliema and Valletta, Malta is a destination that provides entertainment for non divers as well – making it perfect for divers and their families.
The hotel facilities include a fitness centre, indoor and outdoor pools, an extensive Spa selection (including Thalasso and Hydro-therapies, Chinese treatments, saunas and massages) and 6 restaurants. Rooms are equipped with Air con, hairdryers, ensuite showers, mini bars and tea/coffee making facilities.
Upgrades to half board or All Inclusive are available. Different departure airports are also available – please ask for details.
