Description

Small group, big adventure. Limited to 24 guests. Avoid the crowds, explore sea caves larger boats can’t reach, and swim at Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon & Santa Maria Bay. This half-day boat cruise offers a truly unique experience, blending breathtaking natural beauty with the intimacy of a smaller, medium-sized boat. Unlike larger vessels, our boat is perfectly designed to navigate the narrow passages of Comino’s caves, allowing you to get up close to the rugged coastline and explore hidden corners of the island that are often inaccessible to bigger ships. In just 4 hours, you’ll be able to visit multiple stunning locations, from the tranquil Crystal Lagoon to the iconic Blue Lagoon. Whether you choose to swim, relax on board, or explore the shores, this experience offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of Comino, Gozo, and the Mediterranean in a short, unforgettable journey.

Great half day tour. Just right size. Not too big or too small circa 16 people

Very punctual departure and friendly meet and greet on jetty. Skipper was very informative and gave people the options to swim, remain on boat or wander ashore. Took in all the major caves and coves . Really enjoyed it.

Nice walk in a small group.

Beautiful sunset excursion, with fewer people than in the middle of the day. As a bonus, we had the luck and surprise of spotting dolphins on the way back! Small downside: the sound of the music at the back of the boat is way too loud.

Perfect size of boat and great captain.

We had a great time on the boat tour. Joseph was the perfect captain and host. The boat was a good size for feeling spacious yet small enough to get up close to all the caves. We really enjoyed getting out and swimming with the floats and my kids especially enjoyed jumping off the boat. The only small negatives were the toilets at the ferry port (less said the better - not nice) and the optional stop at Comino - it was rammed with 18-30 party goers and stalls serving very overpriced drinks. Neither of those were the fault of Sunlife cruises though! Overall we really enjoyed our day and would recommend.

Super fun and relaxing swim trip!

It was a really lovely half-day trip, definitely worth it! Jose and his team were great at showing us around Malta. We swam in three different places, and the boat ride itself was really fun. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the archipelago!

A friendly family run business providing a five star experience

An excellent experience from start to finish. Family operated and owned business; super friendly; very professional; very safe day out exploring. And so much better experience on a smaller boat with max 24 people. Was fabulous to be able to go right into the caves on the boat. And anchor right up close to some unbelievable picturesque swim spots. Highly recommend.
