111 reviewed
Malta reads best from the water, and there is a boat for every kind of day: harbour cruises under the bastions, island runs to Gozo and Comino, sunset sails out of Sliema. This list sets them side by side with prices, sailing times and what each stop includes, so you can match the trip to your afternoon.

From Sliema, cruise to Gozo and Comino for two swim stops, a waterslide ride, and famous sea-cave scenery, plus Blue Lagoon time.
“We had such a fun day on this boat cruise. The guides were lovely and enthusiastic. There is food and drink available to buy on the cruise ship which is priced very reasonably. The slide attached to the boat was also great fun to use and they have snorkels that you can hire. I would highly recommend staying on the boat and not doing the stop on Gozo, unless you want to see the island (we did that on a separate day). Then you can have much longer swimming and taking in the beauty of the blue lagoon. There is lots to see and do at the blue lagoon with…”

Sliema powerboat to Comino Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, Gozo and caves. Multiple swims, snorkeling masks, shade, and great guiding.
“Really good value for money, a good amount of time spent at each location. Really helpful guides. The only thing I would change is the amount of people on each tour as there was about 40 on our trip and it would have been a bit better with maybe 10 less. Everything else was really great and we had an amazing day!”

Private 2-hour boat tour to Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, Comino and Cominotto from Malta or Gozo, with snorkeling gear included.
“The tour guide was very pleasant but things could be improved, they did not have a snorkel for everyone, the goggles were extremely foggie, the boat had trash and was not very clean, the snorkel stops had no fish, a ton of people and was overcrowded. We ultimately went to see caves and it was nice to see the different areas.”
