A Magical Itinerary: What a Day Looks Like
Here’s what your day might look like if you rent a boat in Malta for a day:
Morning: Setting Sail from Ta’ Xbiex or Sliema
Your journey begins at Roland Marina in Ta’ Xbiex or on the Sliema seafront, whichever is closer to where you’re staying. After a warm welcome from your skipper, you’ll set sail toward the northern coast.
Midday: Hidden Gems and Crystal Waters
- Selmun Bay: A peaceful spot with emerald water and untouched nature. Perfect for snorkeling or paddle boarding.
- St. Paul’s Islands: Drop anchor here to explore the small islets with a rich history and spectacular views.
- Coral Lagoon: A natural wonder, only accessible by sea. The vibrant blue water inside the collapsed cave is a must-see.
You’ll have plenty of time to relax, swim, enjoy fresh snacks and maybe even sip some chilled prosecco onboard.
Afternoon: Blue Lagoon & Comino Adventures
The iconic Blue Lagoon on Comino Island is the jewel of Malta’s waters. Arriving by private boat lets you skip the tourist boats and find the best spots. Dive into the crystal-clear waters, soak up the sun, or explore sea caves nearby.
Add in a quick stop at Santa Maria Bay, a more secluded cove nearby, ideal for a peaceful swim or beach picnic.
Evening: Sunset on the Water
Nothing compares to watching the sun set over the Mediterranean from the deck of your private catamaran. As golden light dances on the waves, feel a deep sense of peace and joy. Consider upgrading to a sunset boat cruise in Malta for the ultimate romantic touch.
