Where the boat goes

Eight points around Comino and the Gozo channel. Three of them are swim stops with real time in the water; the rest we cruise, close in.

  1. Crystal LagoonSwim stop, 30 min

    The first swim stop, and one of the most striking pieces of water on Comino. Half an hour to swim, snorkel or stay on board and look at the cliffs.

  2. Cominotto ReefCruise past, 15 min

    A slow cruise past the reef and its cave mouths, over some of the clearest water on the route.

  3. Blue LagoonSwim stop, 45 min

    The one everybody comes for: bright turquoise water over a white sandy seabed. Forty-five minutes to swim, take the paddleboard out, or go ashore for food and drinks.

  4. Ħondoq BayCruise past, 15 min

    Across the channel to the Gozo side, passing the clear water and rocky shoreline of Ħondoq.

  5. Ħalfa RockCruise past, 15 min

    A small rocky islet off Gozo, with the limestone stacked and weathered above the waterline.

  6. Santa Marija BaySwim stop, 30 min

    The quietest of the three swim stops. Half an hour to get in the water, float with a noodle, or just sit on deck.

  7. Santa Maria CavesCruise past, 15 min

    Comino's best-known caves. Depending on the sea, we either go in or come up close to the entrances.

  8. Elephant Head RockCruise past, 15 min

    The last landmark before we turn for home — a rock formation cut into shape by wind and sea.

We keep the groups small on purpose — everyone gets real time in the water, not just a view of it from the rail.

What people said after the trip

  • Amazing bucket-list experience with this tour. There was only around 19 in total so nice small group. … Those who wanted to could step off onto the island (free pass required) for 45 mins or so, or you could opt to stay on the boat and swim directly from the boat. We opted to swim from the boat which was the best decision!
