Top Malta Cruises & Sailing - page 11

This was a vacation highlight for us. We took 8 on the sunset four hour cruise including a few teens, young adults and adults. We all enjoyed it. The boat was more comfortable than we expected with lounge chairs instead of traditional rows of chairs. It was a pool party atmosphere at the first swim stop with swimming off the boat. Most people did general swimming, not snorkeling. Probably too many people together to see any fish anyway. The boat slide was fun, we all tried it. The second stop at Blue Lagoon was a really nice space for shallow water swimming. You need to reserve a landing pass, it is free, the boat company sends you a link. You can order food from the boat company, but I wouldn't bother. There were plenty of food stands to buy food at Blue Lagoon, they were not too expensive. Drinks in a pineapple shell were very popular. There is a public shower at Blue Lagoon to rinse off. The scenery throughout was beautiful and well worth seeing. Blue Lagoon would not be very accessible for handicapped, lots of steps.

Terrific and relaxing way to experience Gozo & Commino. Our skipper, Justin, was an expert - decades of experience culminating in a relaxed, friendly, and knowledgeable guide. This excursion came after we’d taken a land tour of Gozo a few days before, and this was our last full-day in Malta. We loved the relaxed pace (eg, cruising, swimming, relaxing in natural harbors - always away from the denser crowds). We enjoyed the 4 hour tour - 3hrs could have been enough, but 2hrs would have felt too short. It was an ideal end to a vacation to hear a skipper’s personal history with the island and industry, all while relaxing on the water.

This was a great excursion. The boat pick up is about a 40 minute drive from the cruise terminal. I messaged with Jeffrey and Kylie from Aloha Boat Charters and they assisted with scheduling taxi transport. They had a light snack, bottled water and wine on board for us. My kids really enjoyed the stand up paddle board and snorkeling equipment. Took us to a few different swimming spots. All in all, a great experience!

This was the best day trip ever! We did the blue lagoon for the entire day (did not go to Gozo) and it was so worth it. The deals for the pineapple cocktail drink was 100% worth it and spent the day swimming and sun bathing. Make sure you get to the marina early to get one of the top deck chairs! Food for lunch was so good!

Excellent option for a day trip out to Gozo & Comino. The add-ons for taking a speedboat to Comino caves and a shuttle into Gozo were entirely worthwhile! The blue lagoon itself was gorgeous. I thought I wouldn’t have enjoyed it as much given how many ferries/boats were crowding the area but the water was so pleasant, it was a great way to spend an afternoon. Gozo itself was nice to wander around. The staff did a great job managing all travelers’ needs. The on board services like lockers, drinks and food were great too!

Can’t fault this trip one bit. Looking at all the other boat trips I’m glad we picked this one. Medium size boat with bar and toilet on board. The two crew were exceptional. Stops at Blue Lagoon and Crystal Bay where we were allowed to swim directly off the boat. Highly recommended.

It was a really enjoyable trip, 4 hours was just about the right amount of time. Plenty of stops on the way to explore Comino and the sea caves, my favourites were the Crystal Lagoon and Santa Maria Bay. Skipper was friendly and made a big effort to show us the beauty of the islands. A well worthwhile trip and good value for money.

This was a relaxing day for me. Although, in October it’s still really busy and you probably won’t find a spot near the water. Anyways I risked it and placed my stuff on the rocks and I felt safe. The water is AMAZING. I also recommend walking around go all the way to the top and keeping walking forward you’ll see amazing views and get yourself a pineapple!
