Fernandes Cruise: Malta, Gozo & the Blue Lagoon – Full Day with Lunch

A full day aboard a Turkish gulet exploring the islands of Malta, Gozo and Comino.


This full day Malta island cruise takes you along the northern coastline aboard a classic Turkish gulet, calling at secluded Gozitan bays and the world-famous Blue Lagoon at Comino. With a buffet lunch served on board and a fully-stocked bar, the day is designed for genuine relaxation from start to finish.

Departing from Sliema Marina, the gulet moves steadily past Malta's dramatic northern cliffs, sheltered inlets and hidden coves. The pace is unhurried, giving passengers ample time to take in the scenery or simply stretch out on deck.

The first anchor drop is at a quiet bay off the coast of Gozo, where the water is clear enough to swim in comfort. Those who prefer to stay on board can watch the coastline while the crew prepares for the next leg of the journey.

The afternoon unfolds at Comino's Blue Lagoon, a sheltered stretch of turquoise water that rewards anyone who dips beneath the surface. After swimming, platters of fresh fruit are brought out on deck for the return leg to Sliema Marina.
