Malta’s Riviera Bay Beach was chosen among the 10 safest beaches in Europe where one is least at risk of catching coronavirus.
Europe’s Best Destinations issued a classification of the safest beaches in Europe, where one can plan the next holiday for summer.
The safest beaches in Europe (Covid-19) were selected on the basis of various criteria such as a low number of people infected by the coronavirus (from 10 to 600 times fewer cases of Covid-19), the size of the beaches and the number of square metres available for each person on the beach.
These destinations have also been selected on the basis of the large offer of private villas, tourist apartments, small or medium-sized hotels with specific health charter and commitments to travellers, such as cleaning and room disinfection service after each stay, respect for social distancing.
These destinations are also located near hospitals that have never been overcrowded during the crisis with an average of hospital beds per inhabitant above the European average.
From Greek beaches to beaches in Portugal, or even Lithuania and Poland, discover the longest and safest beaches for a summer holiday in Europe.
Preveza beach in Greece takes the top place, followed by Comporta in Portugal and the Hel Peninsula in Poland.
Malta’s Riviera was classified in the sixth place. In its description Europe’s Best Destinations writes “There have been up to 55 times fewer cases of Coronavirus in Malta than in the most affected European countries. Did you know that Malta has more hospital beds per resident than Finland, Ireland or the United Kingdom? As the epidemic has been very limited in Malta, hospitals have never been overcrowded and will be able to accommodate travellers if necessary.”
