What our customers say
Hi David, Just wanted to pass on our thanks to your organisation for the private sailing boat charter we took yesterday skippered by Tino. The yacht was wonderful as too was the scenery but what really made the trip was Tino. He was exceptionally polite, knowledgeable and professional. His sailing skills are second to none. He took great pride in his job and the boat that he was in control of. He even caught a fish for us and was explaining to my young son in great detail all about Maltese fish – not to mention all sorts of details along the way. We certainly would have no hesitation in recommending your Malta Private Sailing Yacht Charters and Private boat rentals in the future.
Clint Waters - Melbourne, Australia
Dear David, We had a lovely time sailing around Malta with Tino. MoonSong is an awesome sailing yacht, you should be very proud of her. As for Tino, we can’t say enough good things about him. He was a great tour guide, telling us about the history of Malta as we sailed passed its battlements. He was a very able sailor, avoiding weather and making us feel comfortable and safe on the boat on a day with ever changing weather. The meal was tasty and the portions generous. Thank you for helping to make our Private yacht rental for Sailing in Malta the best day of our vacation! Kind regards,
Jane & Jeff Schmitz - San Diego, CA. USA
Thank you David for a fantastic sailing week yacht charter on the Moonsong! Both me and my family was very satisfied with your lovely boat and with the skipper Raymond.
Peter Iburg & Family - Sweden
David, Thanks again for the great time on the full day sailing boat charter to Comino Island. I own a sailboat and sail on the Chesapeake Bay in the U.S. Having an opportunity to sail in the Mediterranean Sea with an experienced captain in a very well maintained and equipped boat made for a wonderful day. Changing course of the boat when you heard of our interest in St. Paul to show us St. Paul’s Bay and his statute and all the other information/history you shared about Malta made the day very interesting for my wife, son, and I as well.
Ken Baker - United States
Good morning David, i wanted to let you know that we took a Sailing Yacht Charter this week with yourself and had the best day of our vacation. We booked our sailing yacht charter with Christina and our skipper for the day charter was Alex who i might add was fantastic. He made our trip magical his knowledge of the sailing boat and the sea was second to none. Every one on board the yacht has not stopped talking about our boat trip. This was my first trip to Malta but it won’t be my last on my next visit i will be using your service on one of your boats again without hesitation. Please send thanks to your good lady wife who i understand prepared our wonderful lunch. Thank you once again David.
Darren Nancarrow - United Kingdom
Dear David, Just a short note to say thank you. We had an amazing charter on-board one of your yachts. Charlie was an amazing host, his sailing skills were great and the food on board was great and truly appreciated – well prepared from very good ingredients. Having a day out at sea on a private sailing yacht charter was absolutely lovely.
Toni Immanen
Hi David, Just wanted to say how much we enjoyed today on board your sailing yacht during our day charter. Just enough wind to sail and with your skipper’s help – found a lovely place to anchor off St Paul’s islands. The Skipper was fun to be with and his stories made our sailing day charter one remember for a long time. Thanks again for sorting everything.
Adam, Adam & Louise – United Kingdom
Hi David. I just wanted to say what a lovely afternoon we had sailing on your beautiful boat. Staffan was so nice and explained a lot of the history of Malta he was so charming and we were all so relaxed. It’s really made our holiday so very special. We can’t wait to come back and book a Private yacht charter with you again in August. Thank you so much for the great sailing yacht charter experience and please pass on my thanks to Staffan.
Zoe Gregory - London, UK
We chartered the Beneteau Cyclades 43.3 sailing yacht. The boat is in immaculate condition and boasts of all the facilities you would need/expect to find on such a boat. The Captain was David who is the owner/operator. David is a very experienced captain and knows the waters around Malta, Gozo, and Comino inside out. From the minute you step foot on the sailing boat you immediately feel at ease knowing that you are in very good and capable hands. David’s pleasant personality, coupled with his polished professionalism as well as his thorough knowledge of the Maltese Islands made for a fantastic day charter out at Sea. A true 5 Star experience. Thank you David. I would certainly recommend Sailing Charters Malta to anyone wanting to charter a yacht in Malta and will definitely be using their services again very soon.
Martin Spiteri - Malta
We had a great time sailing on our day trip on 7th August on your boat. Tino was excellent, nothing was a problem. We were especially grateful for the attention he paid to the two children in our party, making sure they were always safe but enjoying themselves. Thank you for the cake too! Highly recommended yacht charter.
Hayley Grice - United Kingdom
Dear David, I would like to drop you a line highlighting our much enjoyable experience during our sailing boat charter last Tuesday. The day started with very light wind but then had favourable windy conditions late afternoon on our way back. So, being relatively a first ‘full’ sailing boat experience for us we had a great time on board. However, I (we) must admit that it was Tino who made the day for us. His unwavering interest and intensity with which he addresses all boating/seamanship issues are second to none. His ease of hands-on approach together with his personality made our day one to remember. Not to mention that the boat was spotless clean and in best shape. Hats off to Tino. I am positive that your company will keep thriving with people like Tino on board. He is an asset through and through. Keep up the good work. Finally, we look forward to sailing again on your yacht in the future.
Anthony Scicluna - Malta
We spent the day sailing on a lovely 43 foot sailing boat which we rented from Sailing Charters Malta Ltd for our Private Yacht Malta Charter event. The Skipper for the day was David who is also the owner. Everything went smoothly from beginning to end. The boat was in perfect condition; clean from top to bottom & everything was in perfect working order. David made our trip one to remember. His expertise and friendliness throughout the trip made it the perfect day out. We will surely be using Sailing Charters Malta again and would definitely recommend this company for a Malta Yacht Charter. Truly a 5 star yacht charter experience…..Keep it up!!
Liz Baker - Malta
Hi David, We wanted to thank you for our private sailing trip when in Malta. Everything was wonderful, we especially wanted to thank Tino for showing us around. We have worked with many skippers but he tops our list. Thanks again.
Aylin E. Cicek
Hi David, So sorry for the late reply but was having some difficulties with my phone whilst in Malta. We are home now and back at work. Thank you so much for the photo, we will all treasure it forever. Last Thursday’s boat trip was amazing. We all had such a fabulous day sailing. From the moment of arrival until we left, we were all made to feel so welcome and looked after and would not hesitate to charter from you again. Alex was a brilliant host and his sailing skills are simply amazing. So informative. We asked so many questions and he was able to answer every one of them. He looked after us so well. The food was phenomenal, please thank your wife for preparing it for us, we ate heartily and were so full after. I cannot praise your company enough and will be writing you a review on Tripadvisor. All 8 of us had the most wonderful sailing day charter on your yacht which we will never forget. Thank you so much again
Tina Sharp - United Kingdom
I am an American Citizen temporarily living in Malta and have chartered a sailing boat twice with Sailing Charters Malta (Jeanneau 32, Beneteau 43). Sailing Charters Malta is an excellent boat & yacht charter service that i would strongly recommend to anyone wishing to experience Malta, Gozo, or Comino in a private setting from the beautiful Mediterranean. The service is very punctual and responsive to initial inquiries and specific requirements of the client. For both of my Malta Charters, the Captain was the Owner / Operator of the boat and were very technically qualified with life knowledge and experience sailing the Maltese Islands. Having exposure to boat ownership and operation in the United States, I would describe both of the boats that i chartered to be in impeccable condition. I would like to close with a special Thank you to David for the excellent day and memories with my parents who are visiting Malta to celebrate their 50th Wedding Anniversary.
Tim Baker - United States
Dear David, I hope this e-mail finds you well. We arrived safe on Friday at home and we are happy to be back after our holiday in Malta and after having spent a day sailing on your yacht. Tomorrow the real life will start again and before we are completely absorbed by it, I wanted to say thank you again for the great day my family and I spent with you on your boat. Many thanks to your wife for the delicious food she prepared for us. I wish you and your family all the best and much success! Best regards.
Ricardo Bernasconi & Family - Sweden
What a relaxing day on a boat! I do recommend to anyone who is looking for a great Malta sailing yacht charter service and in particular, to spend a day to unwind and chill.
Mark Grech - Malta
Dear David, We are now back in England having had a lovely holiday in Malta celebrating our ruby wedding anniversary. I want to write to thank you for your contribution to making it such a successful event. Your no fuss yet organised approach leading up to the day sailing on your yachts on a private charter was very reassuring, your instructions clear and precise. Moonsong was a lovely boat and Tino a most able and knowledgeable skipper. Alex and I were so happy he had worked with Birdlife and that he could help us identify the birds we came across whilst sailing. We were also all impressed by his general knowledge that made the trip so much more interesting. He went beyond providing us with an amazing day charter on a boat. Thank you also for being there to meet us in person in the morning and for the lovely food you provided. Congratulations to the cook. The whole family had a most enjoyable time during our private yacht hire and we would certainly look you up should we want to repeat the experience on your yacht.

Hi David, Just wanted to thank you for the sailing yacht charter yesterday. We had a great time on your boat and will hopefully be back next year for another day of sailing. I will also pass on your details to more of my friends from Australia who are keen to visit Malta and do a sailing yacht charter. Thanks for a great day.
Adam Zen - Australia
Dear David, We have just returned from our wonderful day sailing on your yacht and what an amazing day we had. I would like to let you know how really friendly and helpful we found Tino, nothing was too much trouble. He was full of great information and also was wonderful with the children, they will not forget today in a hurry. We even had a lovely freshly caught fish for supper on the way home. Again thank you for providing us with an excellent experience for our sailing boat charter rental from your company and please pass on our thanks to Tino.

SEA ADVENTURE EXCURSIONS
Our Available Boat Trips
Swimming in comino.
We anchor in the secluded Crystal lagoon for cave swimming, snorkelling and cliff jumping. Then we spend the rest of the afternoon in the Blue Lagoon. Swim and snorkel from the boat or go ashore to have a hike around the island.
Swimming in Comino, sightseeing in Gozo
Do you prefer exploring? Then this is for you. Have a short swim in the Crystal and Blue Lagoons, before we sail to Gozo. The charm of Malta’s sister Island is immediately apparent; it’s greener, more rural and smaller, with life’s rhythms dictated by the seasons, fishing and agriculture.
We have teamed up with operators in Gozo, to offer optional land tours to visit the island during your stop.

Malta Boat Tours: 10 Things to Know Before Booking
![malta yacht tour The beautiful turquoise blue sea in Malta between the islands of Gozo and Comino from above. There are a few clouds in the sky and several boats and yachts in the picture. Taking a Malta boat tour is a great way to explore the island.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-1024x683.jpg)
Wondering if you should book a Malta boat tour? Well, you’re in the right place!
Although I prefer to respect the sea at a safe distance (it’s true… I don’t love boats), joining a boat tour was one of our favorite experiences in Malta.
Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or an ocean newbie, I highly recommend taking a Malta boat trip to explore its crystal-clear waters, fantastic caves, and gorgeous coastline.
Before you set sail on this unforgettable adventure, we wanted to share a few key things to consider to help make the trip as smooth as possible.
In this post, we share 10 important things to know before booking your Malta boat tour.
Let’s do this!
Best Malta Boat Tours: Private & Group

10 Things to Know Before Booking a Malta Boat Tour
With so many Malta boat tours, knowing your options and the kind of adventure you’re craving will help make your decision easier.
Here are the 10 things to know before booking to ensure your Malta boat tour aligns with your expectations.
1. Book Tour in Advance
![malta yacht tour Gavin standing in a black sleeveless shirt and sunglasses, standing in front of the aqua waters of Comino Island. There are people swimming and several Malta boat tours in the distance.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-blue-lagoon-1024x683.jpg)
Most Malta boat tour companies offer easy online booking, making it convenient to secure your spot with just a few clicks.
We highly recommend booking in advance , especially during high season.
Malta is gaining in popularity as a top tourist destination, so reserving your boat tour in advance is the smart choice.
Some allow last-minute bookings. But to ensure you don’t miss out on this incredible experience, I would organize your Malta boat trip ahead of time.
Most companies offer free cancellations up to 24 hours before the trip. And some provide full refunds in case of cancellations due to adverse weather conditions.
✅ HELPFUL TIP: Make sure to read the tour operator’s cancellation and refund policy before booking your boat tour.
2. Interest: Sightsee vs. Snorkel
![malta yacht tour A gorgeous limestone cliff jutting out of the cobalt blue water. You can see 2 different caves from the boat.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-caves-874x1024.jpg)
Before booking your Malta boat tour, consider the type of experience you want.
👉 What’s Your Interest? ✔️Exploring hidden coves ✔️Swim and snorkel ✔️Adventurous cliff jumping ✔️Discover less-touristy spots
Malta offers a variety of boat tours, so be sure to research and choose one that aligns with your preferences.
Popular options are sunset cruises, full-day tours, and private charters.
✅ HELPFUL TIP: Check the boat tour itinerary before booking to ensure it includes the activities and locations you’re interested in.
3. Travel Style: Private vs. Group
![malta yacht tour A man jumping off a yacht into the ocean. Two women are sitting on the back of the boat. Knowing if you prefer a group or private experience will help you choose which Malta boat tour is right for you.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-jump-874x1024.jpg)
When booking a boat tour in Malta, consider your travel style.
👉 What’s Your Travel Style? ✔️Like to meet new people ✔️Hate crowds ✔️Require more flexibility ✔️Prefer a quiet, intimate experience
Although group boat tours are more affordable , not everyone loves crowds (like us).
Private boat tours offer flexibility and the luxury of having the entire boat for just your party.
You have the freedom to customize your itinerary , so you decide the time that works for you and how long to spend at each location .
If you live with chronic pain like me, traveling at your own pace is essential.
4. Boat Size: Large vs. Small
![malta yacht tour A small group of people on a Malta boat tour in the Blue Lagoon. There is a larger boat behind them. Knowing if you prefer a small or large boat will help in your decision.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-boat-size-1024x683.jpg)
With so many Malta boat tours to choose from, it may come down to the size of the boat.
Different types and sizes of vessels are used for boat tours ranging from small motorboats to larger catamarans or sailing yachts .
Larger boats may offer more onboard amenities and facilities, like a bar, sundeck, bathrooms, and seating areas. They also tend to be more stable in choppy waters.
Smaller boats offer a more personalized experience with fewer people onboard. This is perfect for families or couples looking for a quieter getaway.
Small boats can also reach more secluded areas and hidden gems that larger boats cannot access.
Consider your comfort level and preference when deciding between a large or small vessel for your Malta boat tour.
✅ HELPFUL TIP: If you get seasick, opt for a larger boat with stabilizers to ensure a smoother ride.
5. Comino & Blue Lagoon Get VERY Crowded
![malta yacht tour The crowded docking area on Comino Island. There are people standing on the dock under umbrellas, as well as people in the foregound climbing to find a spot to relax. There is a speedboat approaching and a huge tour boat from Malta behind them. This popular destination gets very crowded, especially in summer.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-comino-1024x683.jpg)
One of the most popular stops on most Malta boat tours is the Blue Lagoon on Comino Island.
While its clear, turquoise waters are gorgeous , it can get extremely crowded with tourists . This is especially true during peak season.
We left disappointed after an hour because it was overrun with tourists .😳
Be prepared to share this magical spot with a gazillion other tourists .
There are limited places to relax close to the water.
Expect to walk up a steep hill to find a quieter spot to lay your towel. This is something to consider if you struggle with fatigue and mobility.
If the Blug Lagoon is on your bucket list, arrive early in the morning or later in the evening . These times are a little less busy.
Or better yet, find a less popular but equally stunning location to swim and snorkel.
✅ HELPFUL TIP: Bring your own drinks to avoid purchasing the overpriced beverages and snacks they sell in the few shops on Comino.
6. Compare Price vs. Value
![malta yacht tour A white, smaller Malta boat tour with an ivory canopy in a secluded area of Comino Island. There are limestone cliffs and rocks with green shrubs and the aqua water is calm. It is easier to find these quiet spots on a private tour.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-value-1024x683.jpg)
It’s important to compare the prices , but don’t solely base your decision on cost alone. Instead, consider the value the company offers in return.
Cheap tours may not offer the best value, may be overcrowded , or limit the time at each location.
More expensive tours may offer higher service and amenities , a more personalized experience, or unique excursions.
It’s always a good idea to research options and read reviews from previous customers before making a decision.
Find the right balance between price and value for your needs and budget.
7. Best Time for a Boat Tour
![malta yacht tour A gorgeous sunset with deep yellow, pink and blue skies. The clouds are lightly shaded and the water churned up from a nearby boat is turquoise. You can see Valletta in the distance.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-sunset-1024x683.jpg)
The best time to go on a boat tour in Malta is from April to October .
To avoid the busy season, visit during the shoulder season when the weather is still warm but there are fewer tourists.
Summer is the busiest (and most popular) time for boat trips in Malta.
We visited in July, and a boat trip in Malta was a must! However, be prepared for higher prices and more crowds.
If you’re looking for a romantic excursion, you may want to consider a Sunset Cruise to the Blue Lagoon.
✅ HELPFUL TIP: If you travel at the start of April or the end of October, it can get cold and windy on the open water, so pack warm clothing.
8. What’s Included?
![malta yacht tour A larger Malta boat tour seen from above. The boat is white with 2 rows of loungers along the edge and 4 solar panels on the back. You can see people swimming in the light turquoise Mediterranean water.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-included-1024x683.jpg)
Every boat trip in Malta will include different things in the price. Here are common things to look out for when choosing your boat trip.
- Knowledgeable tour guide
- Snorkeling gear (if included in the tour)
- Refreshments such as water, soft drinks, and alcohol (may cost extra)
- Access to swimming spots (if included in the tour)
- Lunch or snacks (if included in the tour)
- Transfer to/from your hotel (may cost extra)
Some boat tours may also include additional activities like jet skiing or parasailing.
Be sure to read the tour description carefully before booking.
✅ HELPFUL TIP: Find a tour that meets your specific needs, especially if you have a hidden disability. (eg. shaded deck seating)
9. Where to Join a Boat Trip
![malta yacht tour A traditional red, yellow and blue Maltese boat anchored in the harbor. There are several other boats in the water and the city in the distance. Boat tours in Malta depart from St. Julian's, Sliema and Mellieha.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-departure-1024x683.jpg)
Unfortunately, there are no boat tours from Valletta , only private sailing excursions. But if that’s your thing, then check out this tour!
Most tour companies offer boat trips from popular tourist areas like Sliema, St. Julian’s, Bugibba near St. Paul’s Bay, and Mellieha , one of the best towns to visit in Malta .
If you want to join a Malta boat trip from Gozo, you can do that too.
✅ HELPFUL TIP: If you’re staying at one of the amazing adult only hotels in Valletta , it’s easy to take the ferry to Sliema to join your boat tour. Or choose a tour that includes a transfer from your hotel.
10. What to Bring on a Boat Tour
![malta yacht tour Robyn smiling wearing sunglasses and a white beach dress over her bathing suit. She is sitting in a private boat with a small Malta flag and touring the caves around Comino.](https://twoemptypassports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/malta-boat-tours-bring-1024x683.jpg)
To have the best time possible, here are a few essentials you should bring on your boat trip.
✅ Water: in the summer it gets HOT, so always carry water with you
✅ Sunscreen: (preferably reef-safe) the sun is hot and there will be limited shade on Comino, the boat deck, and when swimming in lagoons
✅ Sunglasses & Hat: again for the limited shade
✅ Towel: to dry off & lay on
✅ Swimsuit: a given… no swimming nude here
✅ Water shoes: if you plan on swimming in rocky areas
✅ Waterproof phone case/cover: better to be safe than sorry!
✅ Seasickness Bands or Tablets: I swear by these sea bands
✅Snacks: if you’re like me, you need snacks all day. Drinks & snacks for purchase on the boat/Comino will be pricey!
✅ HELPFUL TIP: It’s always a good idea to bring a small bag or backpack to store your belongings, and best if it’s waterproof.
![malta yacht tour The view of Mellieha, the cathedral a tall green tree and blue sea from a balcony at the Lure Hotel, one of the best adult only hotels in Malta.

FAQs: Malta Boat Tours
Is the blue lagoon malta worth it.
Yes, absolutely! The reason it’s such a popular attraction is because the clear turquoise waters are stunning! It can get insanely crowded during peak season, so taking a boat tour is the best way to experience the Blue Lagoon without having to step foot on Comino Island.
What is the best month to visit Malta?
The best time to visit Malta is during the shoulder season in April, May, September, and October. The weather is perfect and not as hot as the summer months. Plus, there are fewer crowds and prices are more affordable.
How many days in Malta is enough?
Spending at least 3-4 days in Malta will give you time to explore its many historical sites, beautiful beaches, and charming towns. You can visit the Blue Lagoon and check out the island of Gozo. However, to appreciate the Maltese culture and explore more hidden gems, then at least a week is ideal.

![malta yacht tour A popular boat tour in Malta: The Valletta Harbour Cruise.](https://www.maltauncovered.com/wp-content/uploads/valletta-harbour-cruise-malta-top.jpg)
Why Take This Traditional Harbour Cruise Malta?
These tours are operated by iSeeMalta . They’re a reputable company that offers hop-on-hop-off buses and ferries, as well as combo passes for sightseeing and museums around Malta and Gozo.
Why I recommend this cruise to my readers
- Excellent value: At just €15 for adults and €10 for children (4-12y), this 90-minute tour is a low-cost tour that’s fun, informative and comfortable
These harbourside towns give you a glimpse of local life along the Grand Harbour and you can find some great restaurants and cafes there too.
You can also combine this tour easily with the hop-on-hop-off bus and ferry operated by iSeeMalta as well. On top of that, other sea cruises and tours depart from Sliema Ferries as well and can take you to other sightseeing attractions like the Blue Lagoon.
- Easy to reach: The tours start and finish at Sliema Ferries, which is super convenient if you’re staying in Sliema or St. Julian’s (which is next to Sliema). If you’re staying in Buġibba, St. Paul’s Bay, Qawra or even Gozo, you can use the iSeeMalta hop-on-hop-off ferry to get onto this tour easily as well.
- Great family outing: If you’re looking for things to do with the kids, I’m confident this will be a fun and interesting sightseeing experience for them too
- Unique views: There are few better ways to explore the fortifications around Valletta than by sea, guided by commentary on board.
Where to buy tickets?
The easiest way to buy tickets is to get them in advance from the iSeeMalta website. Here’s how:
- Go to the Traditional Harbour Cruise page
- Select how many adults and children you need tickets for
- Pay for the tickets online, and either opt for tickets to be posted to your home address or pick them up from any iSeeMalta info point presenting your email receipt. Info points can be found in various destinations in Malta. (See the FAQ section on iSeeMalta.com for more info).
What to expect on your Valletta Harbour Cruise
The cruise boat itself.
On the boat, there’s plenty of space (also for social distancing when required) and with interesting, detailed commentary (in English and German), you’ll get a good understanding of the history of Valletta’s harbours.
Departure times from Sliema (daily)
The service runs all year round, but schedules may change. Always check the iSeeMalta website for the most up-to-date info on their schedule.

Valletta’s Harbours
Valletta is flanked by two of the largest natural harbours around the Maltese islands: Marsamxett Harbour (on the west side of Valletta – across from Sliema and Gżira) and Grand Harbour (on the east side of Valletta – across from The Three Cities).
This boat trip takes you deep into both of these harbours.
Marsamxett Harbour
After you depart from Sliema, you’ll head further into Marsamxett Harbour, passing by Manoel island and its recently restored Fort Manoel.
You’ll also be able to admire the famous West-facing skyline of Valletta. Recognisable by the bell tower of St. Paul’s Cathedral and the silver dome of Our Lady of Mount Carmel church.
![malta yacht tour Entrance to Valletta Grand Harbour.](https://www.maltauncovered.com/wp-content/uploads/valletta-grand-harbour-entrance.jpg)
Grand Harbour
As you exit Marsamxett harbour you’ll sail around Fort St. Elmo and the Breakwater Bridge (also restored in recent years), into Grand Harbour.
On your right, you can see the Siege Bell War Memorial (which commemorates those who fell during the Siege of Malta in World War II) and the Knight’s hospital building (La Sacra Infermeria). You’ll also see Valletta’s popularly visited Lower and Upper Barrakka Gardens.
Passing by the Valletta Waterfront, on the outskirts of the capital city and its nearby cruise port, you’ll be passing into the creeks of The Three Cities. Enjoy a sea view of Senglea (Isla), Birgu (Vittoriosa) and Bormla (Cospicua) and life by the harbour of Cottonera (another name for the area). These little towns and their surrounding area are one of the most densely populated areas in Europe.
There is a brief stop at Kalkara for those wanting to get off to explore the area on foot or to visit Esplora Interactive Science Centre.
Afterwards, the boat returns to Sliema, passing by the tip of Valletta once again.
Harbour area history
The harbour area has played an important part in the history of Malta, for example, when it was at the centre of the Great Siege of 1565. This conflict saw the Ottoman Empire try to overthrow the Knights of the Order of St. John and conquer the island.
The Knights of St. John ruled the Maltese islands between 1530 and 1798 and left a mark on Malta’s history that is still visible today.
While cruising the harbours, you’ll be able to admire several of their well-preserved fortifications from the past, guided by the audio commentary on board. They include Fort St. Angelo (at Birgu), Fort Manoel (Gżira) and Fort St. Elmo (at the tip of Valletta).
On the Grand Harbour tour, you’ll also see the docks, where boats and other vessels are serviced and repaired. You’ll also pass through French creek and Kalkara creek.
