Where the boat goes

3h 30m, leaving at 10:00 or 13:30. The order of stops can change with the weather and the sea.

  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.

Where to meet us

At Ċirkewwa in Mellieħa, down the stairs behind the café kiosk, on the kiosk’s jetty — a short walk from the Gozo ferry terminal.

Please arrive 15–20 minutes before departure so there is time to check in and board. We don't offer hotel pick-up.
