Crystal Lagoon

Our first stop will be the beautiful Crystal Lagoon on the west side of Comino Island. This lagoon is a perfect spot for divers and snorkellers. With mesmerising turquoise waters surrounded by towering cliffs and stunning 360-degree views, it is one of the most beautiful and sheltered lagoons in the entire archipelago. Take a refreshing dip and explore the incredible sea caves within this breathtaking lagoon.Stopping at the Crystal Lagoon depends on weather and sea conditions; if a visit there isn’t possible, we will head to Santa Marija Bay instead. This secluded bay is known for its crystal-clear, shallow waters, making it ideal for swimming and snorkelling. Surrounded by lush greenery, the bay offers a peaceful retreat for those seeking relaxation amid natural beauty.After serving lunch onboard, we will head to the Blue Lagoon, arriving around 1:15 PM.

Additional Info

  • Confirmation is instant and will be received at time of booking
  • Public transportation options are available nearby
  • Not recommended for travellers with mobility impairments.
  • If you are making your own way to the boat, the departure is from Sliema Ferries, Triq Ix-Xatt, Sliema (in the area opposite the Basilica of Jesus of Nazareth). When you arrive at this location, you need to look for a Turkish gulet (a traditional-design wooden sailing vessel); the name of the boat is the 'Hera'.
  • The boat is wheelchair and stroller accessible; however, the island of Comino is not wheelchair or stroller friendly. The terrain on Comino Island is very uneven and rugged, which makes it very difficult to navigate with a wheelchair or a stroller.
  • Pets, large luggage, and large suitcases are not allowed on the boat.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Comino, Crystal Lagoon and the Blue Lagoon Cruise from Sliema?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
