A low-slung RIB cuts a silver path across the channel and, in a sudden opening, the Blue Lagoon appears—water the color of a polished aquamarine stone, shallow enough to see fish weaving around submerged rocks. On a private two-hour cruise to Comino, families trade crowds for a small-deck vantage: kids peering through masks, the captain pointing out a cave mouth, and the island’s sun pushing everyone toward the water.

A low-slung RIB cuts a silver path across the channel and, in a sudden opening, the Blue Lagoon appears—water the color of a polished aquamarine stone, shallow enough to see fish weaving around submerged rocks. On a private two-hour cruise to Comino, families trade crowds for a small-deck vantage: kids peering through masks, the captain pointing out a cave mouth, and the island’s sun pushing everyone toward the water.
Comino sits between Malta and Gozo, a limestone slab softened by marine terraces and worn caves. St. Mary’s Tower, a 17th-century coastal watchtower, marks centuries of maritime vigilance; the island was historically a quarantine and waystation, not a permanent settlement. The lagoon’s clarity comes from coarse limestone and limited runoff—geology that makes swimming here exceptional but also sensitive.
Expect short swims from the anchored boat into shallow bays, quick snorkel sessions over seagrass meadows, and a guided pass of the island’s sea caves. The crew typically offers basic snorkel gear and shade; small-boat etiquette—no diving from the bow, respect for anchors and mooring zones—keeps the area healthy for everyone.
Practical tips: book morning or late-afternoon slots to avoid the busiest midday window, bring reef-safe sunscreen and a personal snorkel if you prefer fit and clarity, and pack a dry change for the return. For families, life vests and shaded seating make the short crossing comfortable; for swimmers, the lagoon’s calm current invites a confident, easy float. This trip is short, social, and tuned to people who want maximum water time with minimal hassle.

Comino played a role as a watch and quarantine point under the Knights of St. John; St. Mary’s Tower (1618) stands as a maritime landmark.
The Blue Lagoon’s clear water depends on limited boat traffic and healthy seagrass; use reef-safe products, avoid anchoring on vegetation, and pack out all trash.
