Malta has relatively low crime rates compared to other European countries. Tourist hotspots such as St. Julian’s and Sliema, however, are often the site of petty crimes such as pickpocketing and handbag-snatching. It would be wise then to take care and keep track of your belongings. Walking around at night is safe in most areas of Malta, except for the country’s central nightlife attraction, Paceville, as well as just outside the harbour-side village of Marsa. Should you decide to visit Paceville, be sure to be mindful of how much you drink, and to avoid disagreements with the bouncers.
