Took my two teens out for a surprise boat day and wow, we ALL had a blast!! The crew were super chill and didn’t mind my kids running around (they even let them steer the boat for a sec, shh). Sun loungers on top deck, cold drinks, and the water was just sparkling. We did the speedboat to the caves—bit bumpy but so worth. Make sure you bring extra sunscreen, I missed a spot and now my left shoulder is lobster red. Would 100% do this again!

Fun trip for the family. We got there a little late so had to sit inside, but the AC was actually a relief because it was SCORCHING outside. The food was better than expected (get the burger, skip the fries). The swimming stop at Blue Lagoon was pretty busy but still gorgeous. Only minus was the queue for the toilets, felt like I spent half the time waiting lol.

I went solo and made friends on deck! Music was vibey, captain had jokes, and the water was UNREAL. Bring flip flops, the deck gets HOT. Also, saw some jellyfish but crew warned us where not to swim. Def worth the price. Bring a waterproof bag for ur phone!

Spend a laid-back day anchored in Malta’s most photogenic bay, with uninterrupted time to swim, snorkel, or just soak up the sun—no land tour, no rush.

Enjoy fun extras like a 10-meter water slide, limited sunbeds on the upper deck, and onboard amenities like lockers, restrooms, and a snack bar.

Cruise past natural landmarks like the Ahrax and Santa Maria sea caves, Elephant’s Head rock, and the Comino and Gozo coastlines for plenty of photo ops.

Live commentary from your captain adds local flavor and stories as you sail past Malta’s northern coastline.

With 4.5 hours at Blue Lagoon and easy water access directly from the boat, this experience is perfect for travellers who just want to chill and swim.

The caves were COOLLLL. I took the speedboat add-on and it was wild, especially flying through those small arches. Boat was packed (maybe tooooo packed), but staff super friendly and drinks weren’t a ripoff for once. Nice day out overall.

Not bad but not wow. Boat left on time, seats were okay. Too many people for my taste. Views from the top deck are lovely tho. Blue Lagoon is overrated but my kids liked the schute. Food is average. Bring snacks if you have picky eaters.
