Sunset Tour at Comino Blue & Crystal Lagoons with Sea Caves
Golden-hour colours, turquoise waters, and ancient sea caves along the Maltese coastline
The Comino Blue Lagoon sunset boat tour brings together the most celebrated natural landmarks of the Maltese archipelago in a single three-hour voyage that unfolds as the light turns amber and the crowds thin out. Departing from Cirkewwa, this experience is designed for travellers who want to witness the islands at their most photogenic without strenuous effort.
The itinerary moves through three distinct locations, each offering its own character. The Crystal Lagoon rewards visitors with calm, sheltered waters ideal for swimming, while the Blue Lagoon provides ample space to float, snorkel, or simply sit on the sandy shoreline as the sun descends toward the horizon.
The final call at the Santa Maria caves introduces a layer of geological and historical depth to the journey. Carved by centuries of wave action, the rock formations here provide a striking contrast to the open seascapes encountered earlier on the tour.
The difficulty rating is Easy, making this trip well suited to families, first-time visitors to Malta, and anyone seeking a relaxed yet visually rewarding way to spend an evening on the water.

Watch the golden hour transform the Blue Lagoon into a canvas of amber and rose as the sun sets over Comino.

Cover three of Comino's most celebrated natural sites in a single efficient three-hour circuit.

Blue Lagoon — Main Stop
A full hour at the Blue Lagoon gives guests time to swim, snorkel, or settle on the sandy beach. As the sun begins to lower, the colours of the water and sky shift dramatically, creating ideal conditions for photography and quiet contemplation.
4
Santa Maria Caves — Sea Cave Exploration
The boat navigates to the Santa Maria caves, where passengers can observe and explore impressive rock formations shaped by the sea over millennia. The site adds a sense of geological wonder to the evening experience.
