The engine cuts through morning calm as Malta’s coastline slips astern and the spray dares you forward. Onboard a high-speed powerboat, the Mediterranean opens fast: limestone cliffs roll past, fishing villages shrink to clusters of ochre roofs, and St. Paul’s Islands appear like a weathered map point against the blue.

History
Gozo has a long human record: its Citadel commands centuries of local governance while nearby Ġgantija temples are Neolithic monuments that predate many ancient civilizations.
Conservation
The Blue Lagoon faces pressure from heavy day-trip tourism; operators and local authorities manage mooring and anchoring zones and encourage pack-in, pack-out practices to protect reefs and water quality.
Reserve your spot on the Gozo, Comino and Blue Lagoon Powerboat Tour from Sliema today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Arrive Early
Plan to be at the St. George’s Bay meeting point 20–30 minutes before departure to check in and secure good seating on the open deck.
Protect Against Sun and Spray
Use reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, and UV sunglasses; boat spray increases sun exposure and glare on the water.
Prepare for Sea Conditions
If you get seasick, take medication beforehand and sit mid-boat where motion is gentlest; avoid heavy meals right before boarding.
Pack a Small Dry Bag
Bring a waterproof pouch for phone, documents and a light layer — pockets of wind and splash are common on the fast crossing.
Swimwear
Quick-dry swimwear lets you jump into the Blue Lagoon and be comfortable during the return ride.
