Malta is a small island located between Sicily and North Africa. The climate of this place is influenced by air masses from the African region, but the Mediterranean Sea, washing the coast of the island, softens any manifestations of atmospheric phenomena, making the weather in Malta pleasant at all times.

Step 1
Malta's climate in May is surprisingly comfortable. This is one of the best months to visit this island, so beloved by many Russian English learners. The minimum amount of precipitation and pleasant air temperature will allow you to enjoy your vacation without any problems. You can even swim: the sea is not that warm, about 18 degrees, but by the end of the month it is already warming up enough.
Step 2
The air temperature during the day is about 23 degrees, in the morning and in the evening it fluctuates around 15. At night it drops, but not significantly. Record air temperatures for Malta are as follows: the highest thermometer value during the day was about 32 degrees, and the lowest - 9 degrees Celsius. Even in the hottest or coldest May, the climate of Malta remains very attractive for recreation.
