“My friend and I are abroad and did this for a day! It was a lot of fun. They have food and cocktails on board and you cruise to the blue lagoon and stay there for a couple hours. The blue lagoon is so beautiful and definitely worth seeing in Malta. They played good music and were very nice. Would recommend.”

“The friendliest ever. The father son duo were the most genuine and thoughtful. we travelled in early October so we had to contend with some wind, however they toured us around and found us some sheltered areas to go for a swim. i especially appreciated the conversation and the local insights. Authentic local fisherman and a gozo fishing boat.”
