“I really enjoyed the comino cruise. Due to having a full 9 hour tour of Gozo the day before I opted to spend the full 4 hours in Comino. I’ve read a few reviews and they state this is too much time, however I could have spent more time there. I spend 2 hours at the blue lagoon, then had some lunch and spent the remaining time hiking Comino and found some beautiful views and spots, I could have spent alot longer exploring. It does also state that after October no there is no crystal lagoon stop and this is only during specific seasons. The over all tour was really…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 2,061 reviews · 5 hours · from $47

5-hour powerboat from Sliema to Comino Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, Gozo caves, plus swims and snorkeling masks for about $47.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our few hours on board with Captain Tony! Tony is full of life and guarantees you having a good time, simply because he has a great time!! The two swimming spots either side of the stop at the Blue Lagoon were our definite highlights; the water was so crystal clear and warm, and there was so much wildlife swimming around with you. In hindsight, I’d have preferred more time at those two spots than the 1.5 hours stopped at the Blue Lagoon, but I appreciate that’s where there are places to grab food and drinks. Tony was super informative throughout, educating us about the Malta landscape and…”

★★★★★★★★★★3.3 · 425 reviews · 8 hours · from $41

Full-day Malta to Gozo and Comino cruise, with Victoria and Rabat on Gozo, plus Comino Blue Lagoon swimming and snorkeling time.

“Wish there was a little more time in Gozo. Really wasn't much time to do anything of and substance - we managed to get to the top of the citadel then grab a snack to eat but then it was time to go back. The Blue Lagoon was great. Wish they'd be upfront about charging extra to go on the top deck of the boat. And apparently the 5 free drinks we'd been promised didn't exist any more - we didn't find that out until we checked in at the boat, and hadn't bought any drinks with us. The boat ride was really cold on the way out (mid April)…”

“De vrouwen die je ticket inscannen zijn extreem arrogant en onbeleefd! De boot was overvol. Je hebt geen comfortabele plaats om te zitten. Je moet op de grond zitten. De toiletten zijn onhygiënisch en vuil. De zwemstops kloppen niet met de advertentie. Er stond cyrtal lagoon, dit hebben wij niet gekregen. Ze zeggen dit niet op voorrand. In de 7 uur dat je erop zit krijgen we maar 2 stops. Weinig drank keuze. Enkel sprite en cola. Eten was ook echt niet lekker. Dit is echt niet je geld waard.”
