Saint Julian's was initially a small fishing town on the island of Malta. But now it is one of the most popular regions around.

The climate in St Julians is typical of a Mediterranean location with constantly warm weather that attracts many thousands of tourists at all times of the year.

The sun shines almost every day in St Julians, which not only pleases the visitors, but also satisfies the vast number of ex patriots who choose to make this part of Malta their home.

Go to the beach on any day of the year, and you are likely to see at least one person sunbathing.            

Based on the North West side of the island, St Julians actually enjoys more sunshine hours in the winter than it does in the summer. However, the earlier sunsets in July and August bring welcome relief from the scorching heat that can reach average high temperatures of up to 31°C.

Latin architecture is abundant across the town, offering a range of historical sites and statues for all to admire. But in the peak summer months it can be too hot to do more than take a quick stroll.

And while Malta is not famous for its beaches, the man-made lagoons and lidos complement the few sandy areas that are available. This ensures everyone can take advantage of sea temperatures that never fall below 25°C.

Those with some energy to burn can enjoy the wealth of water sports and outdoor activities that are prolific across this coastal area. Malta is known for harbouring some of the best diving and snorkelling sites across the world and St Julians is the ideal location for any diving fan.

But with any point in Malta just a short journey away, this is also the perfect base for a trip to explore the land around the region. See areas such as Valetta, Mdina and Comino which are all just a short drive from St Julians. Or venture out in a boat and discover Gozo or Sicily across the sea.

Thanks to the mild evening temperatures, St Julians is also a hive of activity when the sun goes down. An array of pub, bars, clubs and restaurants focussed in the PaceVille area ensure this is the place to go in peak season, especially for those that like to party.

While away from the centre of PaceVille, the more tranquil St Julians town offers its own collection of bars and restaurants that are just as perfect for a romantic meal as they are for an entire family.

Thanks to the wonderfully warm climate and consistent levels of sunshine, Malta is busy all year long. And even in the lowest season the majority of establishments stay open. It is therefore advisable to book early if you want to ensure your favourite place to stay in St Julians and make the most of any visit to this sensational area.

Summer in St Julians

Though summer traditionally starts in June in St Julians, the warm weather in May means that many visitors will try to get an early start on the vast amount of tourists that visit the region in the peak season.

Gone are the rainy days of spring. Instead the season starts with very dry and very warm weather and very little chance of any more downpours until mid-September.

As peak daily temperatures average 30°C throughout the key summer months of June, July and August, make sure you are prepared for the heat. Many days will reach temperatures far warmer than average. And if you intend to do some sightseeing, you should always check the forecast before you set off.

Many visitors to Malta will be shocked by how warm it can get. And if you are sensitive to the sun you must take extreme care.

All that heat is perfect for sitting by the pool or venturing down to the sea. But with limited beaches on the island, be prepared for the sand to be very crowded, especially during the summer months. And get there early to secure the best spot.

The lack of rain and blistering temperatures mean the ground does tend to take on a scorched effect during the summer months. But when the sun goes down, those warm summer nights ensure the pubs and clubs continue pumping well into the next day.

Usually the temperature won't fall below 18°C throughout the entire season, even in the middle of the night. But this just means even more people will be out of their beds, letting the party spirit take control.

Autumn in St Julians

Autumn sets in quickly in St Julians. While the first two weeks of September usually continue the long, hot dry weather. By the time the third week of September starts, there are usually some heavy showers.

By the end of September, the levels of rain will increase significantly, bringing back the luscious country side that this part of Malta is becoming so famous for.

Sea temperatures start to climb at this time of the year, so there is still plenty of opportunity for some beach side fun. And with average highs of 28°C in September and 25°C in October, there's lots of sun to be had.

As the season moves closer to winter, the number of average daily sunshine hours starts to increase, offering longer days and cooler nights. But with average lows still above 15°C for the whole of the season, it never gets too chilly in St Julians.

Winter in Santa Susanna

Between December and February, increased rain levels mean this part of Malta is statistically wetter than even the UK. But with the rain coming in short sharp showers, and plenty of sunshine in between, it is still a wonderful place to be.

The winter time boasts the most sunshine hours across St Julians. And when the sun comes out, it is the perfect time to sit outside a restaurant or café and watch the world go by.

But this time of year also provides the warmest temperatures in the sea which ensures that, even if a day starts out cloudy, there is sure to be some time to enjoy the warmth.

The winds are a little stronger during the winter months. But in St Julians, that just means there is more opportunity for faster sailing or some more adventurous kite surfing.

For those that want a White Christmas, St Julians is not the place to come. Temperatures in winter never usually fall below 10°C. And though rainfall in December can collectively reach 110mm during the month, average highs will remain around 17°C.

Spring in St Julians

While January and February are still very much steeped in winter weather, by mid-March everything starts to change. The level of rainfall in the area falls drastically, and temperatures are on the rise.

Spring is a wonderful time to visit St Julians to enjoy the unspoilt side of the region. This is one of the only areas in Malta that hasn't been over commercialised and maintains a more authentic landscape.

Average temperatures of between 16°C and 19°C during April and May, and constant levels of sunshine, make it the perfect time to hit the beach. It is especially appealing for those that don't like the sun too hot, or want to avoid the excessive crowds of the peak season.

However night time temperatures can be a little bit of a shock after the warm spring days. So a cardigan or light jacket is usually required.

Spring is the best time to go sight-seeing in St Julians, with warm dry days that do not carry the risk of scorching heat. A cool breeze is usually also apparent to create the perfect conditions to get out and explore.
