Robert Arrigo & Sons Limited (MTS Globe Malta) · Marfa or Cirkewwa
A round-trip ticket from Marfa or Cirkewwa, in the north of Malta, to the Blue Lagoon on Comino: 20 to 25 minutes each way, past the sea caves. Pick it for the freedom: boats run every 30 minutes, and you come back whenever you like on the day you booked.
This is a ferry ticket, not a tour. You leave from Marfa or Cirkewwa, both at the northern tip of Malta, not from Sliema. The ticket works at any time on the day you book, with no time slot on the boat, and boarding is first come, first served. The crossing takes 20 to 25 minutes each way and runs past the Comino sea caves; the last trips that go by the caves leave Marfa at 3:00 PM and Cirkewwa at 3:10 PM.
Boats go every 30 minutes. In summer the listing gives Marfa departures from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM and Cirkewwa from 8:40 AM to 5:00 PM; the last boat back from the Blue Lagoon is at 6:00 PM. From November to March the first boat is at 9:00 AM from Marfa or 9:10 AM from Cirkewwa, the last at 4:00 PM or 4:10 PM, and the last one back from the lagoon at 4:00 PM. Once you land, the day is yours: as long as you like at the lagoon, a walk up to St Mary's Tower, other bays.
For the same price you can book the Gozo option: the ferry to the Blue Lagoon, then later another boat on to Mgarr Harbour on Gozo, with no return to Malta. You make your own way back on the Gozo Channel ferry or the fast ferry; Gozo Channel puts its crossing at about 25 minutes, and foot passengers' tickets are validated at the Gozo terminal on the way back. Going ashore at the lagoon needs the free landing booking run by the Malta Tourism Authority (your boat's confirmation or listing gives the link); pick the slot for the hours you plan to be there. Food, drinks and a guide are not included. A friendly tip: bring sun cream, a hat and cash, as the listing suggests.
Go to the jetty for the option you booked. Boarding is first come, first served.
The crossing runs along the coast and past the Comino caves (trips until 3:00 PM from Marfa).
Swim, snorkel and explore Comino. Show your landing booking for a wristband.
Boats from the lagoon to Gozo leave on the hour from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Take any return boat to Marfa or Cirkewwa that day, or the Gozo Channel ferry from Gozo.
