Get ready to be amazed by the turquoise, crystal-clear waters of the famous Blue Lagoon! This picturesque bay with transparent cyan waters, a white sandy base, and a rich marine life is the perfect spot for a relaxing and unforgettable day.

We spent a beautiful day exploring stunning lagoons and vibrant blue waters on our cruise. The trip allowed us to access remote spots that felt untouched, and we loved swimming in the crystal-clear sea. The transportation was smooth, with a comfortable boat ride and friendly crew who shared local stories along the way. However, we did find the midday stop a bit crowded, which detracted from the serene experience we were hoping for. Overall, it was a delightful way to embrace the island’s natural beauty together.

Setting off from Sliema, we felt the excitement build as we made our way towards Comino Island. The highlight for us was definitely swimming in the stunning Blue Lagoon, where the water was such an incredible shade of turquoise that it looked like something out of a postcard. We also enjoyed exploring the hidden Crystal Lagoon, which was perfect for some quiet moments away from the crowds. The only downside was that we wished there had been a little more time to relax on the island itself, as we felt rushed at times. Overall, it was a fantastic day filled with beautiful sights and memorable experiences.

The cruise was a fantastic way to discover secluded lagoons, with the vibrant blue waters offering a perfect backdrop for some unforgettable swimming. I did wish the trip included a bit more time to soak up the atmosphere on the island itself, but the stunning sights made up for it.
