Full description
Depart from the Bugibba Jetty and begin your cruise along the northern coast of Malta. Pass by all of the sights including St. Pauls Islands and the statue of St. Pauls, and Ahrax Point. Continue cruising through the north channel of Comino as you pass by the elephants head, Santa Maria Bay, St. Nicholas Bay, and the Comino hotel. Make quick stops to enter inside both Ahrax Cave and Santa Maria Cave. Throughout the journey, Kevin and his father, Captain Joe, will inform you about the sites and give you information regarding Malta.
After approximately 1 hour, arrive on Comino island in the famous Blue Lagoon. The boat will moor up and you can enjoy a stop of 1.5 hours. During your time, feel free to use all the facilities on board the boat or get off and explore the island. Relax and sunbathe on the top deck or find some shade on the main deck. Take a refreshing plunge into the cool, crystal clear water. Take advantage of male and female toilet facilities, lockers, and the cafeteria which serves hot and cold beverages.
After the time at Comino, head off to the island of Gozo and stop for 3 hours. During your stop in Gozo you are free to explore Mgarr Harbour and the surroundings or get on a local bus to Victoria the capital city of Gozo. Another option is to book the minibus/coach shuttle service that stops at the main attractions on the island. Visit the capital city Victoria where you will see the UNESCO-listed Citadella building, then stop at Ta' Pinu church and Dwejra where the inland sea is and where the Azure Window used to be. Please understand that this is not a guided tour; the driver will stop you at each location and allow you time to visit. Those traveling on a Sunday will not be able to enter the Ta' Pinu church due to Mass.
At the end of the 3 hours, return to the boat at the Mgarr Harbour and continue the cruise back to Malta through the south channel of Comino. Cruise by the Crystal Lagoon and caves, and pass by St. Mary's Tower. Arrive in Malta at 5:30 PM.
