When arriving en masse on a strip of land like the blue lagoon, some indications should be given that there is no place to sit or lay down a towel.

The guide is very helpful, friendly and rigorous in her explanations. I think the price is too high for the type of tour....

Description

The ferry to Gozo and Comino departs from the ports of Sliema at 10 am and Bugibba at 10:40 am, both located on the island of Malta.

The crossing, which takes approximately one hour, takes place on board a modern ferry with a cafeteria service. You'll also enjoy magnificent views of the Maltese archipelago from the boat's panoramic decks.

This trip across the Mediterranean Sea will take you to the islands of Gozo and Comino. Once you disembark, you'll be able to explore these islands at your leisure. For the return to the island of Malta, there are several ferries available in the afternoon.

What To Do on Gozo & Comino

The ferry will take you to the port of Mgarr, located in the south of Gozo Island: the second largest island of the Maltese archipelago. Here, you can enjoy its paradise beaches and extensive archaeological remains.

Comino is the smallest island in the Maltese archipelago, but it's well worth a visit to admire its stunning Mediterranean landscapes. Comino's main attraction is the famous Blue Lagoon, where the ferry will drop you off. As well as offering many opportunities for a refreshing swim, this small Maltese island is also ideal for easy hiking trails.

How it Works

You can get on and off the ferry as many times as you like during the same day.

Depending on the hour of departure, you'll enjoy some free time on each island as follows: 2 hours in Gozo followed by 2 hours in Comino; 2 hours in Comino followed by 2 hours in Gozo; 5 hours in Gozo; or 5 hours in Comino.
