Malta: Blue Lagoon, Beaches & Bays Trip by Catamaran

Malta: Blue Lagoon, Beaches & Bays Trip by Catamaran

We will stop in 2-3 different locations. The first stop will be the Blue Lagoon. The boat will drop anchor away from the crowds so that you can swim in the famous turquoise water peacefully. The stops after the Blue Lagoon depend on the weather/sea conditions. A few of our possible stops are: 1. Crystal Lagoon, surrounded by steep, dramatic cliffs. Its crystal clear waters are much deeper than the Blue Lagoon, making the area fantastic for snorkelling and swimming in and around the caves. During this stop, you can enjoy an optional barbecue. 2. Anchor Bay to view the film set of Popeye’s Village, tucked away in a charming bay. Other stops that could be made include Mellieha Bay, Golden Bay, GHajn Tuffieha Bay, Ramla Bay, Imgiebah Bay, or Half Rock. All of these locations are great for snorkelling and swimming. Back on the boat, listen to dance music, and buy cocktails at the bar. If you have selected the afternoon option, relax and watch the sunset on the horizon.

I’d say that the cruise timing is simply perfect to visit Comino in this time of the year. In the evening the island is not overcrowded. The cruise team is really good, the music - wonderful, the bar and the kitchen - affordable prices and tasty.

It was a great first diving experience for my daughters! The guide Matteo took care in ensuring that we understood the fundamentals before our dive, and that we were comfortable when submerged. Would definitely recommend!

It was so much fun! We didn’t take the transport option, but I’d recommend people to take it. It was a bit hard (and expensive) to get a Bolt from Popeye village to Valletta.
