My group absolutely loved this boat trip! Blue Lagoon is definitely a must visit if you’re heading to Malta. Mario was incredibly friendly and explained everything clearly.

Evgheni was super helpful and responsive when arranging the booking itself and our captain for the day, Graziella, was incredible. The sea was quite rough on the way out and she kept one eye on the sea and another on the group of 8 people, socialising and also looking after one of our group who felt quite sick, like it was easy. The combination of knowledge, skill and genuine care made it such an unforgettable experience. Thanks so much to both of them for helping to make my 30th birthday a celebration

We had a brilliant experience on our boat trip to celebrate the anniversary of my Dad’s birthday. Grace was our skipper and she was a total joy. Took us to some beautiful places, looked after my Mum especially and always felt like we were in safe hands. It was a very special day.

Graziella was an absolute delight to hang out with and was so knowledgeable about the area. She showed us some amazing spots, had everything we needed on board (we bought our own food) and was very accommodating. She let us choose where we wanted to go but also had some great recommendations for when we weren't sure. We had a great time snorkeling and watching fish.

Even before the trip the communication was great. Any query I had was answered within the hour. 8 of us hired this boat for the end of September. We had a skipper by the name of manuel, who was the best. It was choppy the day we went but he still took us to multiple places and even extended our time for free. He was also knowledgeable about Malta which was handy. Highlight of our trip!!
