1.Comino, Blue Lagoon & Caves – swim, snorkel & slide

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 813 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $36Our pick

Cruise Malta’s Comino with a Blue Lagoon swim, snorkel stops, and photo time—plus optional speedboat caves for good value.

“If you’re after a peaceful and relaxing experience then this trip is probably not for you. The boat was full to bursting with tourists and music was blaring the whole time. The Blue Lagoon is worth a visit for the crystal clear waters but the location is spoiled by the hoards of boats and people.”

Beginner-friendly first scuba skills in St. Julian’s with a certified instructor, shallow-water practice, and guided marine spotting.

“It was my first dive and was the only person - so a personal dive session so to speak. Mike (my instructor) was extremely diligent in going through all safety procedures before we entered the water. While we could have gone a whole lot deeper, my brain simply dint allow me to -Mike kept saying do what’s comfortable and there’s no need to rush or do anything beyond my comfort zone. I had to surface quite a few times and Mike was very patient and got me to the surface quickly. On the way back, he helped me log in my dive on the PADI app (which was quite cool).…”

“You are encouraged only to dive if well enough. However on the morning of my afternoon dive I was not well. Informed the company, they said they’re booked this week and cannot rebook me. (Availability showed on the website and I’m here for two weeks). They refused to rebook or help in anyway. Just took my money and told me to rebook through the website. Money is more important to these people than safety. They’ve kept full payment and I have nothing to show for it. Diving with another company here in malta instead and they’re great! Avoid these unhelpful money grabbers. I understand there is a “cancellation policy” and…”

The experience was great, and we dived for roughly one hour, the remaining time allocated for tutorials, a small quiz, transfer to the diving spot (around 5 mins away), and preparation. We could see lots of fish of different sizes. I would totally recommend for a first experience!”
