Sliema, Coastal resort town in Northern Harbour District, Malta
Located between Marsamxett Harbour and St Julian's Bay, Sliema extends along the Mediterranean coast with its prominent waterfront promenade and modern buildings.
Fort Tigné, constructed by the Knights of St John in the late 1700s, stands at the peninsula's edge to protect the harbor entrance from maritime attacks.
The summer fiesta of Stella Maris in August brings locals together with traditional band marches, religious ceremonies, and street decorations across the town.
The frequent ferry service connects Sliema to Valletta in ten minutes, offering an alternative route to the capital city without driving through traffic.
The transformation from a fishing village to Malta's principal residential area replaced Victorian buildings with towers that redefined the coastal landscape.
