The only crag on Malta with a dedicated sports climbing area is Wied Babu, though small amounts of sports routes can be found on other crags as indicated above. This is generally on harder routes (6b and above) or where natural protection is poor. The decision to bolt is decided upon a route-by-route basis. Malta has many excellent deep water soloing (DWS) venues, particularly Ghar Hasan. However not all of the deep water soloing routes on Malta are recorded, it's a case of go and explore.
Gozo also has a number of crags, click here for more information. To find out when is the best time to visit Malta and how to get to there, go to our logistics page.
