June - October
In the morning, we stop for 1hr at the stunning but less well known Crystal Lagoon. It is fringed by steep cliffs and therefore accessed only by boats. With unbelievably clear water, it is perfect for swimming, snorkelling and diving. Take a plunge into its crystal clear waters from one of our three waterslides, or jump from the top deck if you dare! A true snorkelers paradise, where you can even swim inside the caves.

En-route to the Blue Lagoon, you can admire the fantastic sight of a shipwreck from one of the 26 underwater windows. It is a 50-meter ex-German Minesweeper lying on the seabed 20 Meters below sea level. The visibility of the wreck will depend on the sea and sunlight conditions. For safety reasons, we will not stop at the wreck if there are ongoing diving operations.

November - May
We spend approximately 15 minutes in Crystal Lagoon; we stop only for photo opportunities and to visit the sea caves.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Victoria, Victoria, Island of Gozo

St. Georges Basilica is found down in the town square. The basilica is entirely coated with marble, while the canopy over the high altar is gilded in bronze and gold. All paintings in the dome and ceiling are by Giovanni Battista Conti of Rome. One of the fascinating parts of the basilica is the statue of St. George, sculpted in wood by Pawlu Azzopardi in 1838.

Had a wonderful day cruising around Comino and Gozo as a Birthday treat for my wife. We paid the extra €5 for the bus s in to Victoria and spent 2 hours having lunch and exploring. Loved the chance the chance to take a quick dip at the blue lagoon and crystal cave, although this time of year, the sea is a little chilly. Would advise taking a sweatshirt to keep warm, otherworldly de a fantasy trip and well worth the €35 total. Would thoroughly recommend 👍

Brilliant trip! Really enjoyed all of it. No veggie option on the burger menu but there are food vans at the Blue Lagoon so that's not a problem. The Blue Lagoon is spectacular, plenty of time on Gozo, would like to go again when the water is warmer for swimming! The boat gets very full so arrive early.

Crew were helpful and knowledgeable, boat was busy but room to sit down. All places were well worth a visit. Loved the history. Wind got up on the way back, very eventful and a few people with sea sickness!!

Visiting Gozo by ship was one unforgettable experience. We went on Easter days and the weather was amazing. I recommend 100%.

We had a really good time! We had the Sea Odyssey which is a really comfortable boat. The crew was kind and everything was arranged very well. We chose not to swim in Blue Lagoon but had a nice walk around Comino instead. Bus shuttle on Gozo to the capital Victoria was easy and we had a good amount of time there too. Would definitely recommend!

We saw wonderful places, and the staff were very caring, attending to the passengers who were seasick due to the rough sea.

This was a fabulous experience as I would surely have given it 5 stars if it were just the boat I was rating. I booked the boat tour of comino Island and the bus transfer to Victoria on gozo Island all of which was timely with friendly staff and a great price the views were beautiful and the boat was clean and comfortable if you arrive early you can get a top deck lounger but they are limited so arriving early and waiting is worth it to get one for me it made the experience. There 3 boats when we arrived and both where for the same bookings but the one we chose looked far more luxurious than the other. Comino islan is a MUST it is one or the most amazing places ive ever seen the blue lagoon is beautiful the venders on the island and the music from the boats etc all adds to the vibe and it was fab! The only reason I didn't rate 5 stars was the bus transfer on gozo it was all very cattle market rushing I to different minibuses dropped off in carpark and told to be back in 45 minutes when it was supposed to be a 2 hour excursion. We were dropped off at 3.20 and told to be back at 4pm as the boat picked us up again at 5pm but then when we were returned to the bay to get back on the boat for the cruise back to St pauls we were at the bay for 4 .15 and had to sit for 45 minutes and wait on the boat surely we could have been picked up at 4.30 giving us enough time in vocrtoria my friend and I didn't get going anywhere as we were concerned about missing the bus back to the boat. But other than that it was a brilliant experience on the boat itself and I would recommend it to anyone who loves a boat day but perhaps book the all day boat and give the bus transfer a miss and I don't think you really get much from it.

The clear waters, the scenery and good organisation . A one hour stop for a swim in Comino , snorkel equipment available to hire for 5 euros plus lockers to keep your stuff safe. Then on to Gozo. You do only get transport up to Victoria and back and only have 2 hours on the island but it’s just enough to see the Citadelle and grab a quick takeaway bite. The return trip stopped in the Star lagoon and we had another opportunity to swim and snorkel. The boat was comfortable and staff helpful. Would definitely recommend this trip

We had an absolutely fantastic day out on the catamaran, went to a beautiful bay where I was able even in march to go for a swim off the boat... then we went to gozo and buses had been well organised to collect us from the quay and take us up to visctoria to look around. Like wise collected and returned on time. Great mix of trippers from families to solo travels. In all an excellent well maintained vessel with friendly staff, good selection of drunks and well organised. Thanks to the crew!!

We used the 'hop on hop off bus service and if you purchase an all inclusive ticket it includes the boat trip to Gozo and Comino and some entrances to various places of interest, The War Museum and The Malta Experience' were two well worth a visit. The boat trip to Gozo was lovely, along the coast of Malta, but to be fair didn't think there was much to see on Gozo but it was an interesting open top bus ride around the island's narrow roads and I can recommend the one80 restaurant on the other side of the harbour. The trip to Comino from Gozo to see the Blue Lagoon was very good, on a smaller boat. After viewing the caves and the beautiful lagoon the boat dropped us off onto the shore. At this point I'd like to warn passengers that this exercise is not at all comfortable as the is no real docking area or proper steps up to the top and this trip should definitely come with an advisory! Once there there is nothing to do and we had to wait an hour and a half before we returned to the main boat. There are some refreshment vans but absolutely no seats and the toilet is as bad as it gets, but to be fair the lagoon and caves are beautiful Enjoy !!
