Step aboard for Malta’s most distinctive coastal adventure—a unique six hour cruise designed for travellers who want to escape the ordinary and dive into the island’s most picturesque bays. This is the only cruise dedicated entirely to tracing Malta’s raw, dramatic coastline, taking you to 9 remarkable bays scattered along the picturesque coastlines of Gozo and Comino, and offering 5 swim stops in places most visitors never get the chance to experience.
As we cruise along the shoreline, the journey takes you far beyond the usual crowded beaches and tourist routes. The highlight of the day is exploring a series of off the beaten track bays, each offering its own atmosphere and natural beauty. Places like Ramla Bay, with its golden sands glowing just beneath the water, and San Blas Bay, a tiny, secluded cove tucked between lush valleys, offer a sense of peace and space that feels worlds away from the busy mainland. Daħlet Qorrot, a small and quiet fishing inlet with incredibly clear waters framed by rugged limestone cliffs, adds another layer of discovery. And then there’s Dwejra Bay, a dramatic natural amphitheatre of rock and open sea, where swimming feels almost otherworldly.
Along the way, the cruise also takes you past a collection of other iconic coastal locations, giving you a complete sense of Gozo’s dramatic shoreline. You’ll cruise by Xlendi Bay, Marsalforn Bay, the striking Ħalfa Rock, Santa Maria Bay and its caves, and the impressive Elephant Head rock formation. To top it all off, you’ll enjoy a bonus swim stop at one of Comino’s famous lagoons—either the Crystal Lagoon or the Blue Lagoon, depending on sea conditions.
Between these scenic gems, you’ll enjoy a traditional Maltese “ftira”, a refreshing drink, and a sweet dessert, served as the coastline unfolds in front of you. The route includes passing by well known scenic points, but the focus—and the true magic—is found in those tranquil pockets of coastline where nature still reigns untouched.
With no other operator offering a full coastal circuit built around these scenic and beautifully natural bays, this cruise is designed for those who crave something real, raw, and deeply memorable. It’s a chance to experience Malta from the sea the way very few ever do—slowly, quietly, and completely immersed in its most hidden beauty.
Please note that the route and swim stops may be adjusted on the day to ensure the safest and most enjoyable experience, depending on sea and wind conditions. All swim stops are done directly from the boat while the vessel is anchored; no disembarkation or land visits take place at any point during the cruise.
To make your day completely effortless, enjoy convenient pick up and drop off transfers from a selection of hotels and meeting points across the island—ensuring a smooth, stress free start and finish to your coastal adventure.
