Full description

Join the captain and their crew on an unforgettable boat cruise visiting the islands of Comino and Gozo. Starting from the Bugibba Jetty, cruise past the northern coast of Malta close enough to snap amazing pictures of its high rocky cliffs, coves, naturally formed rock formations, and caves.

Pass by historical landmarks such as the islands of St. Pauls and the huge statue of St. Pauls that was shipwrecked in Malta in 60A.D. Enter into the Ahrax and Santa Maria caves stopping as close as possible to get some incredible shots. Throughout the journey, captain Kevin will be making a live commentary about all the sites, including some historic and cultural information.

Then, enjoy a 1.5-hour stop in the famous Blue Lagoon, the place that some have described as paradise. With its silky white sand and crystal clear waters it is impossible to resist a dip here. Swim, slide or jump into the unbelievably clear water or walk off the boat to the beach.

During your time on Comino Island, remain on the boat and use its many facilities. Sunbathe on the upper sun deck, chill out in the shady seats on the main deck, make use of the 10-meter slide, or walk off the boat to the small sandy beach.

After the time in Comino, sail towards the island of Gozo. Enjoy 3 hours of free time to explore the island. Take the local bus or pay on the day for a convenient transfer to Victoria, the capital city of Gozo, and a second stop at Xlendi bay. After 3 hours on Gozo make your way back to the harbor and continue the cruise back to Malta through the south channel of Comino. Pass by the Crystal Lagoon, sea caves, and St. Mary's tower before returning to Malta.

Best experience ever! If you’re questioning whether or not you should book, just do it! Also highly recommend paying the extra 5 euros for the transportation on the island, made the experience so smooth. Everything was perfect and punctual and the crew was extremely friendly and explained everything multiple times to ensure no confusion!

I recommend this boat trip. We also booked a transfer from our hotel in Salina to the ferry in bugibba for €10/person return journey. The skipper and crew were all very helpful, informative and kind. We travelled with a 10 month old and they provided a playpen free of charge for use which they kept on the boat all day for us. Decent food options onboard but a vegan burger option would've been appreciated. Weather was great, sunny 22°C start of November. Blue lagoon was gorgeous, stopped here for 1.5hrs - plenty of time for anyone who wanted to swim, jump off boat or use slide. Gozo was nice, as others say it would've been good to have more time there but the bus is handy as they collect you right off the boat. Very efficient and brought us to a gorgeous viewpoint of the sea and cliffs where we stopped for 30mins for photos. We had a great time, only had 4 days in Malta so this was a good option for a day out! Would book with them again.

This was a lovely trip, well balanced activities and really nice staff on board. I especially enjoyed the speed boat tour to the caves and crystal lagoon, well worth paying 15 euros extra. Time is tight on Victoria on Gozo. We opted to have lunch but with hindsight we should have just had a sandwich and spent more time in the citadel which is amazing.
