Itinerary
Departing in the morning from the Marfa Jetty in Mellieha, we embark on a 6-hour cruise around the islands of Comino and Gozo.
Cruising along the northern coastline, we will travel first to the iconic Blue Lagoon, where we will have our first swim stop of approximately one hour and 30 minutes. Get ready to be amazed by the turquoise, crystal-clear waters of this beautiful lagoon! This picturesque bay with transparent cyan waters, a white sandy base, and rich marine life is the perfect spot for a relaxing break. Spend your time here soaking up the sun, swimming, snorkelling, or simply enjoying a walk in the countryside of Comino Island. The boat will be anchored near the Blue Lagoon; therefore, one can also spend his time relaxing on the boat.
After our visit to the Blue Lagoon, we will proceed to another amazing spot, the beautiful Crystal Lagoon on the west side of Comino Island, where we will stop for approximately one hour. The Crystal Lagoon is a perfect spot for divers and snorkellers. With mesmerising turquoise waters surrounded by imposing cliffs and stunning 360-degree views, it is one of the nicest and most sheltered lagoons found in the entire archipelago. Take a refreshing dip and explore the amazing sea caves located within this stunning lagoon.
We will then cruise to Ħalfa Rock Bay, another picturesque bay located on the southeast coast of the island of Gozo. One of Gozo's hidden gems, it is a deserted small islet sitting solitary on the edge of a pretty little cove with a gorgeous pebbly beach. This secluded bay and its pristine surroundings retain their charm when other bays become very busy during the summer season. Here we will have our third and last swim stop, lasting approximately one hour before we start planning our return journey.
During our return trip, we will pass by the captivating Santa Maria Caves and the iconic Elephant Head rock formation before heading back to where we started our journey.

An absolute highlight in Malta! I had six wonderful hours on board this great boat and can only recommend the tour. The bays we visited were all breathtakingly beautiful. At every stop, we had enough time to swim, snorkel, and relax. I thought it was especially great that pool noodles were provided free of charge. This allowed you to float in the water completely relaxed and enjoy the beautiful surroundings even longer. The boat itself was also excellently equipped. The loungers on the sun deck were perfect for relaxing, and the background music ensured a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere at all times. The price-performance ratio is excellent. For me, this tour was one of the absolute highlights of my Malta vacation. Thank you very much for this unforgettable experience!
It’s wonderful for swimming and seeing natural beauty . I highly recommend when you go to the blue lagoon part of the tour to stay in the water and not go on La d as it was so crowded. It was much more peaceful being in the water and not going g to land . Also remember if you go on land to register for it online .
Boat trip with various stops for snorkeling, beautiful sea even in October. Pleasant day to discover the 3 bays.
The temperature of the water fabulous, the turquoise blue constant and the welcoming throughout the course. We loved the walk and the stops for the sea baths!
This was a nice version of the boat tours in Malta. We were able to stop in 3 locations and spend enough time in each without feeling rushed or that we were there toooooo long. The crew was pleasant and friendly. Even the little snack bar was nice and not over priced.
