Board a private boat at Mgarr Harbour and cross into the cobalt waters of Comino’s Blue Lagoon. This half-day cruise combines short swims, snorkeling in clear water and intimate coastal views guided by experienced local skippers.

You push off from Mgarr Harbour as gulls wheel above and the coastal cliffs of Gozo fall away into open sea. The captain eases the throttle and the boat skims a palette of blues—first the deep Mediterranean, then the bright turquoise of the Blue Lagoon—while limestone stacks and small caves come into view like doors into the underwater world.
