Why Join the Sunset Cruise to the Blue Lagoon?

Malta’s sunsets are legendary — and watching one from the water, at the Blue Lagoon, is a memory that stays with you long after you’ve left the island. The Sunset Cruise is one of the most romantic and atmospheric experiences Malta has to offer, and at €40 per person, it’s also excellent value.

A Magical Evening on the Water

As the boat leaves Sliema at 18:00 and heads north, the light over Malta begins to soften into gold. By the time you reach the Santa Maria caves, the sky is usually already putting on a show. The caves themselves — carved into Comino’s dramatic limestone cliffs — are stunning at any time of day, but in the evening light they’re genuinely breathtaking.

Swimming at the Blue Lagoon at Sunset

The highlight of the evening is the swimming stop at the Blue Lagoon. The turquoise water, the fading light and the gentle sound of waves make for a moment that feels almost unreal. Whether you jump in for a swim or simply sit on the edge of the boat and take it all in, it’s impossible not to be moved by it.

The Return via St Paul’s Island

As darkness falls, the cruise heads back along the coast via St Paul’s Island — a small, historically significant island off the northeast coast of Malta. The lit-up coastline of Malta on the return journey is a beautiful final scene before arriving back in St Julian’s around 21:00.
