The boat slips away from the harbor and the limestone coastline of northern Malta drifts aft, leaving the motor’s steady hum and a ribbon of turquoise ahead. Guests trade city noise for salt air; the Blue Lagoon’s water reads like glass until a breeze chisels it into ripples that dare you to dive in. Over four hours the tour circles Comino and stops at three bays — Blue Lagoon, Santa Marija, and San Niklaw — each offering different water clarity, cliff angles, and shallow reefs for snorkeling.
