What To Expect
Sliema (Pass By)
Departing from Sliema Ferries at 9:30 a.m., we embark on a full-day cruise along the north-eastern coast of Malta, passing by various villages and attractions that dot the shoreline, including St. Julian’s Bay, St. Paul’s Islands, Mellieħa, and many more.
St Julian's Bay (Pass By)
Originally a fisherman’s town, St. Julian’s is situated along the northern coast of Malta and is connected to the town of Sliema by a picturesque seaside promenade, which also includes Balluta Bay, Spinola Bay and St. George's Bay.
Qawra (Pass By)
Qawra is a zone within St. Paul's Bay in the Northern Region of Malta. It is located close to Buġibba and Salina, and it is a popular tourist seaside resort.
Bugibba (Pass By)
Buġibba is a zone within St. Paul's Bay in the Northern Region of Malta. It is located close to Qawra and Salina, and it is a popular tourist seaside resort.
St Paul's Islands (Pass By)
St. Paul's Island, also known as Selmunett, is a small island off Selmun, near the north-east of the main island of Malta. St. Paul's Island is sometimes split into two islands by a shallow isthmus, and it is therefore sometimes referred to in the plural as St. Paul's Islands. St. Paul's Island has been uninhabited since World War II, and it is the second largest uninhabited island in Malta, having an area of 0.1 square kilometres. The Acts of the Apostles tell the story of how Paul the Apostle was shipwrecked on an island, which Chapter 28 identifies as Malta, while on his way to Rome to face charges in 60 AD. Traditionally, St. Paul's Bay and St. Paul's Island are identified as the locations of this shipwreck. In 1844, a prominent statue of Saint Paul was erected on the island.
St. Paul's Bay
Situated on Malta’s breathtaking North Coast, St. Paul’s Bay is one of Malta’s largest seaside towns. Originally a fishing village, the area is known for its promenade stretching all the way to Qawra and Bugibba and offers spectacular views of St. Paul’s Island, where the Apostle is said to have been shipwrecked in 60 AD.Our first swim stop will be at St. Paul's Bay or beneath Selmun, depending on the weather.

Comino
Comino is a small, uninhabited island located between the main island of Malta and the island of Gozo. It is known for its crystal-clear waters, secluded beaches, and stunning natural scenery. It is a popular destination for snorkelling, diving, swimming, and hiking enthusiasts.Comino, with an area of only 3.5 square kilometres, has no cars and is mostly uninhabited.The primary draw of the island is the Blue Lagoon. During the summer, many people visit this bay with its sparkling turquoise, crystal-clear waters, and white sand.

Our second swim stop will be at the famous Blue Lagoon. Get ready to be amazed by the turquoise, crystal-clear waters of this gorgeous lagoon! This picturesque bay, with its transparent cyan waters, white sandy base, and rich marine life, is the perfect spot for a relaxing and unforgettable break. Spend the afternoon soaking up the sun, swimming, sunbathing, snorkelling, relaxing on the boat, or simply enjoying a walk in the countryside of Comino Island. We will stay at the Blue Lagoon for approximately 2–2½ hours, allowing you plenty of time to unwind and have an unforgettable afternoon.
