Great family day

We really loved our family visit to Popeye Village! The place is very exotic and the setting by the sea is magnificent. I also recommend stopping at the viewpoint right across from it before or after the visit to enjoy the superb view of the village and the bay. Also a big favorite was the activity where we all participate together in the filming of a short movie: it's original, funny, and the kids loved getting into the spirit of it. The fact that you can also swim on-site makes the visit even nicer, especially when it's hot. We had an excellent time and I really recommend Popeye Village for a family outing in Malta.

DJ stole the show

The movie characters like Popeye and Brutus those two were more interested in talking with each other, now the swimming and live Dj had stolen the moment. We had so much fun.

A real film in Malta

Popeye village is an amazing set that became a tourist village after the end of the film Popeye in 1980 with Robin Williams. Enjoy a nostalgic trip and discover every details in the village about Popeye's world, such as characters and old forniture all themed as an old mariner village. The place is full of activities, so don't miss it!

Great!

Very beautiful, well-maintained park, lots of activities. However, the activities sometimes start earlier than the scheduled time, so it's a shame I missed some. So a little tip: go 15 minutes early. There are lockers for the aquatic area for €5, very well thought out... you can swim in peace without worrying about your phone, credit card, etc. To conclude. I really enjoyed the setting.

Popeye Village

We spent a very beautiful day at Popeye Village! The place is really pleasant and there is everything you need to enjoy a full day with the family. You can of course visit the village and discover the different sets, but there are also restaurants, a beach, swimming pools, and several areas to relax and enjoy the day. We also ate very well on-site. It is an original place, a change of scenery, and suitable for both children and adults. A very beautiful discovery in Malta that I recommend for spending a pleasant day with the family!
