Ebsons Comino Ferry: Your Gateway to the Blue Lagoon
Fast, reliable ferry service to Comino Island and the Blue Lagoon from Malta and Gozo. Experience the beauty of Comino with Ebsons!
Ebsons Comino Ferry offers a convenient and affordable way to visit Comino Island, renowned for its stunning Blue Lagoon and tranquil atmosphere. As a family-run business with over two decades of experience, Ebsons provides a reliable service from both Malta (Cirkewwa) and Gozo (Mgarr). Comino itself is a small island, only 3.5 square kilometers, located between Malta and Gozo. It's a designated nature reserve and bird sanctuary, offering peace and natural beauty. While the island has a small official population, it boasts clear, glittering sea with various shades of blue and green, making it ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and exploring the rocky reefs, sandy bays, and caverns along the coast. Historically, Comino served as a haven for pirates and, later, as a hunting ground for the Knights of St. John. The Knights also used it as a place of imprisonment or exile for errant members, who sometimes manned St. Mary's Tower as punishment. Today, visitors can explore St. Mary's Tower, Comino Chapel, and other attractions. Ebsons Comino Ferry not only provides transportation but also enhances the experience with optional cave tours during the ferry trip, showcasing the intricate rock formations and underwater tunnels around Comino. Upon arrival at the Blue Lagoon, visitors will find kiosks offering food, drinks, deckchairs, sun umbrellas, restrooms, showers, and lockers.
