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

4.4 (21,307 verified reviews)

About This Experience

With more than twenty-one thousand reviews this is comfortably the most-booked way to reach Gozo and Comino in one day from Malta, and the price is the reason: a full day on the water for less than the cost of lunch on most guided tours. It leaves from the Bugibba jetty and runs roughly six to seven hours depending on the season.

The route works along Malta's northern coast past cliffs, coves and the sea caves that can only be reached by boat, and passes St Paul's Island with its statue of the apostle. You get swimming time at the Blue Lagoon, a photo stop at the Crystal Lagoon, the Santa Maria caves and the Elephant's Head rock formation, and three to four hours ashore on Gozo. The order varies — some days the Blue Lagoon comes first, some days Gozo does.

Understand what the Gozo portion is and is not. Land transport on Gozo is an optional extra selected at checkout; without it you are on foot near Mgarr Harbour rather than touring the island. If seeing the Citadel, Dwejra and Ta' Pinu is the point of your day, a land tour is the better buy and this is the better second day.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do you get on Gozo?

Three to four hours ashore. An optional return bus to the old town, and between June and September to the beach, can be added when you book — without it you are exploring on foot from the harbour, which does not reach the Citadel or the west coast.

Can you swim at the Blue Lagoon on this trip?

Yes, swimming at the Blue Lagoon is included, along with swim ladders for getting in and out. The Crystal Lagoon is a photo stop only. Snorkelling equipment is not included but can be bought on board or brought with you.

What time slot do I get at the Blue Lagoon?

The operator emails your slot on the morning of the excursion, so check your inbox that day. Email is their main contact channel, with WhatsApp as a backup.

Is food included?

No. There is an onboard kitchen and bar taking card payment, and outside food and drink are not allowed. Bring a towel, swimwear and sunscreen; those are not provided either.

What happens if the weather is bad?

The captain may modify or cancel the trip for weather or safety. If the operator cancels, they email you and offer either another date or a full refund. Routes and start points can also change on the day for sea or operational reasons.
