Comino lies between Malta and Gozo, and the Comino Ferries boat to the Blue Lagoon has an advantage: for the same ticket it then drops you in Gozo. So in one day you combine the turquoise water of the lagoon, a fish lunch beside Mġarr harbour and the citadel of Victoria, and return to Malta on the big ferry.

## How do you get there?

From Spain, a direct flight to Malta. From Valletta, by car or bus (41, 42 or X300) to Ċirkewwa, in the north. Since May 2025 the Blue Lagoon has had a booking system with slots and capacity; with Comino Ferries access is included in the ticket and you do not need to get the pass separately.

## The day, hour by hour

7:45 · Leave Valletta. About 55 minutes to Ċirkewwa. Leave the car in Malta: you reach Gozo on the Comino boat and return on the passenger and car ferry.

9:10 · Blue Lagoon. About 20 minutes by boat. Swimming and snorkelling in the turquoise water between Comino and Cominotto; in summer there are food and drink kiosks. Return, €15, with access included.

13:00 · Lunch at Tmun. The Comino Ferries boat continues to Gozo (departures from the lagoon from 11:00 to 16:00). Once in Gozo, in Mġarr harbour, Tmun, run by the Buttigieg family since 1987: ceviche, grilled octopus, the fish trio and Jane's cheesecake. Check its hours: it serves lunch only on some days.

17:00 · Return. Bus or taxi to Mġarr, Gozo Channel ferry to Ċirkewwa (you pay the ticket at Mġarr) and car to Valletta.
