Ferry Tickets to Comino & Blue Lagoon

The best Comino boat tour depends on what you want: a standard cruise for sightseeing, a ferry for the cheapest transfer, a private boat for flexibility, or a party boat for music and atmosphere. This page helps you compare the main Comino and Blue Lagoon ticket options.

A typical Comino boat tour includes transport by boat, a Blue Lagoon stop and time for swimming. Longer cruises may also include Crystal Lagoon, sea caves, Gozo, food, drinks or commentary, depending on the ticket.

Yes, most Comino boat tours stop at or near the Blue Lagoon. The exact stop, swim time and whether you can go ashore depend on the tour, the operator and sea conditions.

Many Comino cruises visit or pass the Crystal Lagoon, especially longer tours and private boats. Very cheap ferry-style tickets may focus mainly on the Blue Lagoon instead.

Comino boat tours usually last from around 2 hours to a full day. Ferry transfers are shortest, standard cruises often take several hours, and private boat trips can be booked for shorter or more flexible routes.

Comino boat tours commonly depart from Sliema, Bugibba, Cirkewwa, Marfa or Gozo, depending on the tour. Always check the exact departure point before booking because travel time to the jetty can affect the best-value choice.

Comino boat tour prices range from budget ferry tickets to higher-priced private boats and full-day cruises. For price comparisons, see the best prices and deals page.

The cheapest way to visit Comino is usually by ferry ticket. A ferry is best if you mainly want transport to the Blue Lagoon and prefer to explore independently.

A private boat is worth it if you want privacy, flexible stops and quieter swimming areas around Comino. It costs more than a ferry or standard cruise, but can be good value for families or groups.

Party boats are worth it if you want music, drinks and a lively social atmosphere rather than a quiet sightseeing cruise. They are usually best for adults, groups of friends and solo travellers looking to meet people.

During peak season, visitors going ashore at the Blue Lagoon may need the free Comino access registration with a time slot. This can apply whether you arrive by cruise, ferry or private boat.

The best overall Comino ticket depends on your plans. Choose a ferry for budget travel, a standard cruise for sightseeing, a private boat for flexibility, or a party boat for atmosphere.

A Comino cruise is a boat trip with sightseeing, swimming stops and time on board. A ferry is mainly transport to the island and is usually cheaper and more flexible for independent visitors.

Families usually do best with a standard cruise that has shade, toilets, seating and enough time at the Blue Lagoon without being too long. For maximum control over timing and stops, a private boat can be better.

Couples often prefer a quieter cruise, a sunset-style trip or a private boat. If privacy and flexible swim stops matter, a private boat is usually the best choice.

Solo travellers often enjoy standard cruises and party boats because they are social and easy to book. If you want a lively atmosphere, compare the party boat options.

Early morning is usually the best time to visit the Blue Lagoon because it is cooler and often less crowded. As someone living in Malta, I recommend arriving before the main midday rush during July and August.

May, June, September and early October are often excellent months for Comino boat tours. The sea is usually pleasant, the weather is warm and the Blue Lagoon is often less crowded than in peak summer.

Yes, routes, stops and schedules can change because of wind or rough sea conditions. Operators may adjust the route, reschedule or cancel if conditions are unsafe.

The Blue Lagoon can be suitable for children, but it gets crowded and has strong sun exposure in summer. Bring water, sun protection and consider quieter times of day.
