Experience the beauty of Comino Island on the Blue Lagoon Cruise with Hornblower Cruises. Swim, snorkel, and sunbathe in the turquoise waters of the Blue Lagoon, and explore the stunning cliffs, caves, and beaches of Comino island.
- 24 Triq San Geraldu - Join us for an unforgettable day tour starting at 10am and returning at 5pm. With Captain Kevin and his crew, we’ll showcase the beauty of this charming little island. Our journey begins at 10am with a touch of religious history as we pass by St. Paul’s Island, where he was shipwrecked. A statue in his honor now stands in the middle of this tiny island.
- Mellieha - We’ll cruise past Malta’s largest beach, Mellieha Bay, and venture into Ahrax Cave for some fantastic photo opportunities. Before crossing the Comino South Channel, we’ll glide by the popular tourist spot, Coral Cove.
- Comino - As we navigate past Ahrax Point, you’ll get a clear view of Comino Island, the smallest of the three islands at just 1.4 square miles. We’ll circle Comino, taking in its high cliffs and magical rock formations like the ‘Elephant’s Head.’
- Blue Lagoon - The highlight of the tour, often called Paradise on Earth by travelers, is the stunning BLUE LAGOON on Comino Island. Enjoy our prime mooring spot and spend your time on the boat, away from the crowded beach. You can jump, swim, and slide into the crystal-clear turquoise waters. Relax on the upper sun deck or the spacious shaded main deck. If you get hungry, our onboard cafeteria offers reasonably priced snacks. While our boat may not be the newest, it has all the amenities you need for a day at sea. Use the boat as your base to freely explore Comino Island, and return for the bar, cafeteria, washrooms, or other facilities. With over 4 hours here, you’re sure to have an amazing time.
- Crystal Lagoon - As we cruise the South Channel of Comino, we’ll enter the Crystal Lagoon, a favorite among divers for its deeper waters. This bay is also accessible by foot from the Blue Lagoon, where we’ll be moored for 4.5 hours. A short 8-minute walk will bring you here, where you can snorkel, swim, or even cliff jump if you’re feeling adventurous. Depending on weather conditions, this site may be visited either on the way to Comino or on the return trip to Malta.
- St. Mary’s Tower - Built in 1618 to defend Comino Island, we’ll pass by the Santa Maria Tower, one of the few buildings on the island. This picturesque site is also known for its role as the Chateau D’If prison in the film “The Count of Monte Cristo.”
- Hornblower Cruises Malta - We’ll return at 5pm.
