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.

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.
The islands here are born of limestone; Gozo’s terraced fields and Comino’s quiet scrub speak to centuries of small-scale farming, seafaring and a string of watch towers that once guarded these channels. Comino itself is largely uninhabited, a rocky slab whose sandy coves and submerged grottoes have made it the archipelago’s most famous snorkeling stage.
On a private two-hour charter you’ll anchor in sheltered bays, slip into the water to snorkel among posidonia meadows and bright reef fish, and scan cliffs for seabirds. Local skippers know the best swim spots—Cominotto’s shallows for calm water, the caves for visibility—and can tailor the route to avoid wind or crowds.
Plan for sun, salt and short hops between anchors: wear reef-safe sunscreen, quick-dry layers and grippy footwear for boarding. Morning departures usually offer glassy seas and fewer boats; afternoons bring more traffic and warmer water. The trip is low-tech but weather-dependent—captains will alter the route if needed for safety. For a focused, effortless taste of Maltese coastal scenery, a private half-day around Comino and Gozo delivers crisp blue water, easy snorkeling and local seafaring know-how.
