I went to Malta with my best friend in October (vacationed for two weeks, then stayed five more for poker) and my favorite place we went to was the
Azure Window. It's in Gozo so you'd have to take the ferry over but it's really cheap (< €5 round trip) and they run all day every 45-60 minutes. Anyway it's a gorgeous spot and we had fun hiking around, swimming in the sea, and watching the sunset.
Here's a pair of many pictures from the day. You can walk on the arch and the pinnacle, which is where the second photo is from. The arch itself is probably about 25m high, and there are some huge cliffs nearby too.
You can get a feel for the landscape in
this video of people jumping off it (starts at 3:24). It's pretty damn high though so I wouldn't advise jumping lol.
