Silema is a town located on the island of Malta. It is located on the northeast coast of the island and is a center for café life, including restaurants and shopping as well. Many of the best shops and hotels can be found along Tower Road. Silema is a commercial and residential area. It is also home to some of Malta’s most modern hotels. The name of Silema mean “peace” and the name was given to the town from a chapel that dedicated itself for the Virgin Mary. The town used to be a quite fishing village, but now has turned into one of Malta’s main coastal resort areas.

Silema has a rich history, stretching all the way back to the Great Siege of 1565. Malta was an important part of the British Empire for many years and developed rapidly under British rule. Because of British influence there were Victorian style and art nouveau houses built on the island. Some of the art nouveau houses still exist in the inner part of the town, but because of modern development, very few still exist on the shoreline. Other British influence comes in the form of street names, such as Norfolk Street and Prince of Whales Road.

Like all the towns and villages of Malta, Silema has an annual festival. Silema celebrates the feast in honor of Our Lady Stella Maris every August. The four band clubs of Silema take part in the feasts every year. The oldest of these clubs is the Stella Maris Band Club, established in 1914.

Silema is also popular for its sports. The town has a football club called the Silema Wanderers. It is the most successful club on the island. It has won the domestic league twenty-six times.
