Just north of Valletta (Il-Belt Valletta), St Julian's (San Ġiljan) is one of Malta's main tourist destinations, developed into one of the island's most popular nightlife and entertainment spots, its unique views are of extraordinary beauty.
Originally a small port town located between Spinola Bay and Balluta Bay, through the years St. Julian's developed as an exciting key reference point for tourism in Malta, its offer meets even the most demanding needs, hotels of quality, restaurants and fashionable nightclubs are scattered everywhere but mainly located in the Paceville district, the lively heart of the nightlife area. But St. Julian's is also a great destination for relaxing holidays away from the busy chaos of the city center, an unique experience will be for locals and tourists to breath fresh air on a golden sand beach with a blue sky and the entire Spinola Bay in the background while enjoying the sun or to walk along the elegant seaside promenade (that reaches the nearby city of Sliema) and be completely enraptured by the beauty of a multicoloured sunset; shined brightly at night, St. Julian's offers the unique opportunity to experience a romantic dining under the stars with spectacular views over the bay...The city still keeps intact its origins of picturesque port town jutting into the Mediterranean Sea, animated by the coloured traditional Maltese fishing boats (Il-Luzzu).
St. Julian's boasts a number of must see tourist attractions, such as the Spinola Palace, a masterpiece of Latin architecture built in 1658 by the Italian knight Giovanni Spinola and located in the heart of the Paceville district, the old parish church that was pulled down, reconstructed anew in 1593, rebuilt and much more decorated than the previous one in 1730, or the breathtaking views from Villa Dragonara, today Dragonara Casino, on the headland of St George's Bay; as St. Julian's enjoys idyllic weather conditions year-round, it is a haven for water sports enthusiasts, diving, snorkeling, swimming, parasailing, wakeboarding while enjoying magnificent views of the Mediterranean will offer moments of pure emotions.

Balluta Bay beach was washed away in the recent storm
July 6th today, but St Julian's looks very empty. The new traffic layout looks finished but very little traffic anyway.
Will be back here in a few weeks with my wife so will see first hand...... Can't wait.
Does anyone know if Balluta bay still has a "beach"
Road work to be complete by next week. I think the major problem is further up St George's Road towards the Wenbley Motors Garage
Back home from spending some fine days there ... last week was a bit chilly but than the weather changed for the better and this week was ... Top time at Top location
The building is suppose to attract the higher end of the tourist trade: but don't get me going I tend not to agree with how Malta is "developing"
10 .05.19 Sun is what Malta has left sadly, nothing else. Looking at this webcam, it looks like a ghetto. Build build build, no planning, and looks like one huge mess. I guess this type of mess will still attract the low end type of tourists, and this is what the new Malta has to offer. Very sad indeed in what it has become.
Back in two weeks, can´t wait. I will leave the snow and could and enjoy the sun!
Agreed Derek, I 've seen this happening at the St George Beach ... unfortunately as there is no beach here, it just kept drifting around and I assume the tide took it back to the open sea.
Carine.the tidal range in Malta is only around a foot (in old money) or 30cm so whatever is washed up on the beaches by the storms generally stays on the shore and is then cleaned by up the councils and disposed off in land fill, the sea weed is in some cases is turned into compost and used on the land. Gan canny folks.
The garbage I was referring to was the plastic and other waste that was left behind by that heavy storm more than a week ago ... I suppose it's 'gone back' into the sea by now ( so I still think it's a pity they didn't scoop it up and got rid of it when it was drifting into the bay )
4mar19--I am not sure of what '' all the garbage '' means in Carine' s comment. I looked for an uploaded image about this '' all the garbage '' , I found nothing. Have others found anything? Please , please upload images, so everybody knows to what is being referred. Fun Information . EnJoy EnJoy
Such a pity they don't take this opportunity to catch all the garbage and dispose of it while it's still within their reach ...
7feb19--Thanks Berry. Thank You to our host, La Dolcevita - Ristorante, for sponsoring this 'live cam' view of St. Julian's and Spinola Bay. ___ Watched the 'time-lapse' today , the cranes move around a lot where viewing live their movements go unnoticed. EnJoy EnJoy
