Departing from Marfa Bay in Mellieħa, you will embark on a 6‑hour scenic cruise in the beautiful, crystalline waters of the Mediterranean Sea to discover the beauty of the islands of Gozo, Comino, and their surroundings.
Pass by without stopping
Mediterranean
As we cruise along the shoreline, the journey takes you far beyond the usual crowded beaches and tourist routes. The highlight of the day is exploring a series of off the beaten track bays, each offering its own atmosphere and natural beauty. Places like Ramla Bay, with its golden sands glowing just beneath the water, and San Blas Bay, a tiny, secluded cove tucked between lush valleys, offer a sense of peace and space that feels worlds away from the busy mainland. Daħlet Qorrot, a small and quiet fishing inlet with incredibly clear waters framed by rugged limestone cliffs, adds another layer of discovery. And then there’s Dwejra Bay, a dramatic natural amphitheatre of rock and open sea, where swimming feels almost otherworldly.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Gozo and Comino: 9 Bays Cruise Including Snack and Transport: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Valletta.
How much does Gozo and Comino: 9 Bays Cruise Including Snack and Transport cost?
+
Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Valletta usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Gozo and Comino: 9 Bays Cruise Including Snack and Transport take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Valletta is not rushed.
Is Gozo and Comino: 9 Bays Cruise Including Snack and Transport worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Valletta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Gozo and Comino: 9 Bays Cruise Including Snack and Transport?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Gozo and Comino: 9 Bays Cruise Including Snack and Transport suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Gozo and Comino: 9 Bays Cruise Including Snack and Transport?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Valletta can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Valletta and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Gozo and Comino: 9 Bays Cruise Including Snack and Transport start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Valletta within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Valletta?
+
On Outty we rank every Valletta experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Original Valletta Walking Tour, Valletta Walking Tour, In a Small Group, Valletta City Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Valletta?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Valletta?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
