The Experience

What your day looks like

Aboard our modern catamaran, you will depart in the morning from Sliema Ferries in Sliema or from Buġibba Jetty in St. Paul's Bay (choose your preferred departure point and time when booking). You will start by cruising up the northeast coast, towards the island of Gozo, an idyllic Mediterranean island of quaint fishing villages and peaceful bays. Upon arriving at Mġarr Harbour (Gozo's main harbour), you will board one of our buses to Victoria, the capital city of Gozo. Along the way, you will drive by different attractions, such as churches and other landmarks, appreciating the magnificent landscape and taking in the impressive beauty and distinctive charm of this tiny island. Once you have reached Victoria, you will have approximately 1.5 hours of free time to explore the city, where you can also visit the stunning mediaeval fortress known as “Cittadella” (the Citadel), which is located within the city of Victoria. With its distinctive skyline and imposing military architecture, this ancient fortress stands out as Gozo’s major landmark, a beacon visible from all over the island. After visiting the mythical island of Gozo, the bus will take you back to Mġarr Harbour, where you will once again board our boat to continue your journey towards the island of Comino, where you will disembark for approximately 2 hours. Get ready to be amazed by the crystal-clear waters of the famous Blue Lagoon! This picturesque bay with transparent turquoise waters, a white sandy base, and a rich marine life is the perfect spot for a refreshing swim stop and an unforgettable afternoon break. Enjoy sunbathing, swimming, snorkelling, or exploring other parts of the island. With no cars or urban areas, the island of Comino is also worth visiting during the winter, making it an excellent destination for hikers and photo enthusiasts. It provides many hiking trails leading to St. Mary's Chapel, St. Mary's Watch Tower, and St. Mary's Battery.
