Boat Trip to Gozo, Comino & St Paul's Islands

Set out on this full-day cruise to Gozo, Blue Lagoon, Comino and St. Paul's Islands from Bugibba to discover the most beautiful sides of the Maltese archipelago on our boat "The Mermaid". On our way towards Comino island, we pass Mellieha and you get the chance to admire the spectacular coastline. Get your cameras ready to take pictures of magical places like L-Ahrax Cave, Elephant Head Rock and Santa Maria Caves. Our next stop will be at the famous Blue Lagoon, where you are invited to jump into the sea from the boat, relax on the beach or explore the uninhabited island of Comino by foot. Don't forget your swimming suits and snorkeling masks, you won't be able to resist the crystal clear, turquoise waters! If you get hungry, you are welcome to eat lunch on board, either your own or you can buy something at our snack bar. After about 1 hour at Blue Lagoon, we head towards Mgarr Harbour where you can start exploring the island of Gozo on your own. During 2 hours of free time sights like Ta’Pinu Miracle Church, Inland Sea, Fungus Rock, Victoria, and the Citadel are waiting for you. On the way back to Malta by boat we discover the beautiful caves of Comino, either Crystal lagoon or St Mary's caves (weather dependent). As our boat is quite small, our captain can maneuovre it into the caves giving you an exclusive look at the inside. Before we return to Bugibba, there will be another 30-minute stop at St. Paul's Island which you can use to swim or walk up to the statue of St. Paul.
