The island nation of Malta lies close to the center of the Mediterranean Sea, between the Italian island of Sicily and the coast of North Africa.  Top content creator Oliverastrologo created this stunning aerial tour of this beautiful spot, which includes epic shots of the harbor at Valletta, the ancient walled city of Mdina, and at the :40 mark the Azure Window rock formation (which subsequently collapsed); all were used extensively as filming locations in Season 1 of HBO's Game of Thrones.

The Mediterranean island nation of Malta saw its first Covid-19 coronavirus case confirmed on March 7, 2020, and within about a week the country had undertaken (more or less) the same measures as the rest of Europe to combat the worldwide epidemic.  In this excellent drone video by top contributor Ericbartolo, you'll see what this looks like from an aerial point of view.  Normally bustling streets and public squares of the country's two main islands are eerily silent and empty, with all nonessential businesses closed.

Award-winning content creator and drone pilot johannesboechl created this marvelous video record of a trip to the Mediterranean island nation of Malta. The first part of the video was filmed on the island of Gozo, Malta's second-largest island which lies just northwest of the main island. The video has some great shots of the Fortress of Cittadella (the capital of Gozo) as well as the Ramla Bay Beach and the Fungus Rock. You'll also see a bit of Comino, the tiny island which lies between Malta and Gozo. This video won DVOW in December 2019.

Valletta is the historic and stunning capital of the island of Malta. The city, built by the Knights of St. John, was once given the nickname “Superbissima” – Italian for “Most Proud.” It also served as a prime filming location for many King's Landing scenes in Season 1 on Game of Thrones. Using a DJI Mavic Pro, drone pilot rikk08 shot the stunning aerial views of this historic city. Fittingly, this video is a Finalist in the Game of Drones category for the second annual Drone Video Awards.

For centuries, the capital city of the Mediterranean island of Malta was not the port city of Valletta but rather the inland city of Mdina.  In the years before the Knights of St. John took control of the island and moved the capital in 1530, island's principal urban center was Mdina.  Located adjacent to Rabat, the original walled city of Mdina lost most of its population in the ensuing centuries, earning the nickname The Silent City.  Check it out from above in this drone video by contributor terencem.

Malta Shipwreck

By virtue of its position in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea's busy sea lanes, Malta has always seen more than its share of shipwrecks.  While most of the wrecks surrounding Malta and its subsidiary islands are old, some are quite new.  In this video, top content creator and drone pilot Chris Borg used his DJI Mavic Pro drone to create a short clip of one of these recent wrecks: the Togo-flagged Hephaestus.  This vessel ran aground during a storm at Qawra Point on February 10th, 2018; it's not been recovered.

Comino is the (by far) smallest of the three islands of the Maltese Archipelago in the central Mediterranean.  Once called Ephaestia, it's situated between the much larger islands of Gozo (to its north) and Malta (to its south).  Covering only about 3.5 square km. (about 1.4 square mi.), it has fewer than ten permanent residents as of 2020.  In this drone video by new contributor maltawalks, you'll get a bird's eye view of this tiny island, including its two most well known sites: the Blue Lagoon and St. Mary's Tower.

One of the most spectacular sights on the northern Malta island of Gozo is the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Blessed Virgin of Ta' Pinu.  The basilica and adjacent shrine is situated on a hill overlooking the town of Gharb, on the northwestern coast of Malta's second (northern) main island.  Considered one of Malta's great cultural treasurers, the basiica was the site of a mass celebration by Pope John Paul II in 1990.  The church was consecrated in 1932 on the site of an earlier structure.

St.Pauls Islands Malta

Jasonaeria...

One of the most vividly detailed passages in the New Testament is the story in the Acts of the Apostles of how St. Paul's ship wrecked on an island on his journey from Caesarea (in present-day Israel) to Rome to face trial.  Most scholars agree that the Biblical reference to "Melita" is in fact the island of Malta.  The most common view is that the wreck occurred on or around what is now called St. Paul's Island on the island's northeastern coast, which you'll see here in this drone video by Jasonaerialfilming.

Triton's Fountain is an important landmark in the city of Valletta, the capital of the island nation of Malta.  The fountain opened in 1959, a few years before Malta achieved its independence from the UK.  It's located near the City Gate, which has been reconstructed several times but which dates to the founding of the city by the Knights of St. John in the 16th century.  The fountain was used to film a scene in the apocalyptic blockbuster World War Z starring Brad Pitt, one of the highest-grossing films of 2013.
