The moment you have all been waiting for, what a lot of travellers' have called, Paradise on Earth, we arrive at the gorgeous BLUE LAGOON on the island of Comino. Take advantage from our great mooring position and spend your time on the boat. Away from the crowded beach you can jump, swim and slide into the crystalline turquoise water. Make use of the upper sun deck or chill out on our spacious shaded main deck. If you're hungry grab something from our onboard cafeteria prices are very reasonable. We might not have the most modern boat but we have all the amenities you need for a day at sea. Use the boat as your base as you walk freely on/ off to the island of Comino. Come back if you need to make use of the bar/ cafeteria, washrooms or other onboard facilities. With over 4 hours here you will have the time of your life.

Built in 1618 to help defend the island of Comino we pass by one of the few buildings on the island of Comino, the Santa Maria Tower. Also popular for its role as jail Chateau D'If in the film the Count of Monte Kristo this is another picturesque site.

Stop 6

Stop 7

Cruising the South channel of Comino we enter into the Crystal Lagoon more popular with divers given its deeper waters.
