The field trip is intended to give an idea of the geology and vegetation of the Maltese Islands. We intend to start from Sliema leaving at 9:15, visit a couple of locations on the North East coast and proceed to the Northwest side of the Island to see a range of geological features, topography and associated vegetation.
