- Blue Lagoon - The highlight of the trip, often described by travelers as “Paradise on Earth,” is the stunning BLUE LAGOON on Comino Island.

Relax on the upper sun deck or the spacious shaded main deck. If hungry, the onboard cafeteria offers reasonably priced options. While the boat may not be the newest, it provides all necessary amenities for a day at sea. Use the boat as a base to explore Comino Island, returning as needed for the bar, cafeteria, washrooms, or other facilities. With over 4 hours here, it’s sure to be an unforgettable experience.
- St. Mary’s Tower - Built in 1618 to defend Comino Island, the Santa Maria Tower is one of the few structures on the island. Known for its role as the Chateau D’If prison in “The Count of Monte Cristo,” it is another scenic spot.
- Crystal Lagoon - Navigating the South Channel of Comino, the cruise enters the Crystal Lagoon, favored by divers for its deeper waters. This bay is accessible by foot from the Blue Lagoon, where the boat will be moored for 4.5 hours. An 8-minute walk leads to this location, perfect for snorkeling, swimming, or adventurous cliff jumping. This site can be visited either on the way to Comino or on the return to Malta, depending on weather conditions.
