🌤️ General Weather

March is the beginning of spring in Malta, bringing mild temperatures, longer daylight, and quiet tourist levels. The Blue Lagoon area feels calm and peaceful compared to summer. This makes it an excellent month for relaxing visits, exploring Comino, and photography.

🌡️ Sea Temperature

The sea in March is cold, usually around 15°C.
Most people find it too chilly for comfortable swimming unless they’re used to cold water or bring a wetsuit. You can still enjoy quick dips, but it’s not beach‑weather swimming yet.
