Malta: Gozo & Comino Islands, Blue Lagoon & Seacaves Tour

1.Gozo & Comino Islands, Blue Lagoon & Seacaves Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 15,672 reviews · 7 hours · from $28Our pick

From Bugibba, cruise Malta’s northern coast to Comino’s Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, sea caves, and Elephant’s Head. Swim, use the boat’s waterslide, then spend three to four hours in Gozo. Add the shuttle to Victoria or, in summer, Ramla Bay. Audio guides come in five languages.

“This is the tour I rave about to everyone that asks me how Malta was. Everything was done so well on this tour. They let us know from the beginning that there would be adjustments due to the weather, as well as at the Blue Lagoon. They made sure we still got the full experience! The bus ride to Victoria was also very well organised and my time there was also very well spent. Would definitely want to do this tour again when swimming is a possibility.”

Comino: Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, and Seacaves Tour

2.Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, and Seacaves Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 5,673 reviews · 6 hours · from $35

Spend about six hours aboard a modern catamaran from Bugibba Jetty, stopping at Comino’s Blue Lagoon and, in fair summer weather, Crystal Lagoon. Swim from the ladders, ride the waterslide, watch through underwater windows, and cruise past Santa Maria Caves. Food, drinks, and optional speedboat cave trips cost extra.

“The best part is being able to be on a comfortable boat with lounge chairs to nap and soak up some sun in between stops. It’s quite amazing and this boat looked much much better and relaxing than the others moored in the stops. I’d highly recommend this for a day out in Malta. The only other recommendation I’d make is to take a smaller boat for the whole day that is able to get into the smaller cave areas, but you’ll be exchanging the comfort you’d have for 6 hours of the day. Thanks for the great experience!”
