The tour was very well organized. We departed and returned on time. The captain provided informative and entertaining commentary in at least 3 languages. The only criticism I have is that it was not disclosed (anywhere I could find) that the ferry ride was 1.25 hours each way. I might have booked the 45 min fast ferry knowing this. All in all, still a 5 star experience.

The boat trip was absolutely amazing! The Blue Lagoon was stunning, and the weather was perfect. My children had a wonderful time and were so incredibly happy, especially with the water slide! The views were beautiful, and the staff was super friendly, kind, and understanding. Plus, the complimentary fresh pineapples were a wonderful touch! To sum it up, it was a fantastic experience!

The crew was very polite, the boat was new and the best one that I saw (pegasus). The capitain was expert and did a great tour. Also the tour wasn't crowded, just 21 person. It was perfect!

A Comino-focused cruise keeps your swim route planned, with lagoon stops, cave views, and onboard time between Malta’s coastal coves.

Board from Sliema, Mellieha, or St Paul’s Bay, then settle in for commentary and deck amenities as the boat heads toward Comino.

Swim at Blue Lagoon and Crystal Lagoon, with time at Ħalfa Rock Bay for another clear-water stop when the route operates as planned.

The route typically passes Elephant’s Head, Santa Maria Caves, rock arches, and coastal formations around Comino.

Pick the departure harbor that works best for your day, with cruise options available from Sliema, Mellieha, and St Paul’s Bay.
