Setting Sail with Seahorse Cruises

The sun was just beginning to rise over the horizon as I made my way to Bugibba, the starting point for my adventure with Seahorse Cruises. As someone who has spent countless hours riding the waves and exploring the ocean’s depths, I was eager to experience the Maltese waters from a different perspective. The promise of a day filled with exploration, relaxation, and the vibrant hues of the Mediterranean was too tempting to resist.

Upon arrival, I was greeted by Captain Owen, whose warm smile and firm handshake set the tone for the day. The M/S Kyumm, a stunning Turkish Gullet, awaited us, its wooden deck gleaming in the morning light. As we set sail, the gentle rocking of the boat and the salty breeze instantly transported me to a state of bliss. The crew, a delightful mix of friendly faces, ensured that every passenger felt like a cherished guest.

Our first destination was the island of Gozo, where we disembarked to explore the charming town of Victoria. The cobblestone streets and historic architecture were a delightful contrast to the modern world, and I found myself lost in the beauty of it all. After a leisurely stroll and a taste of local delicacies, we returned to the Kyumm, ready for the next leg of our journey.

Discovering the Blue Lagoon

As we sailed towards the Blue Lagoon, the anticipation among the passengers was palpable. Known for its crystal-clear waters and stunning scenery, the Blue Lagoon is a must-visit for anyone exploring Malta. However, what set this experience apart was Captain Owen’s decision to moor in a quieter bay, away from the throngs of tourists.

The tranquility of the secluded spot was a welcome surprise. With the sun shining down and the gentle lapping of the waves against the boat, I couldn’t resist diving into the inviting waters. Snorkeling in the Blue Lagoon was a revelation; the vibrant marine life and the clarity of the water made it feel like swimming in a natural aquarium. It was a moment of pure connection with the ocean, reminiscent of my days spent surfing in the Caribbean.

Back on board, the crew served up freshly cooked meals that were both delicious and reasonably priced. As I savored the flavors, I couldn’t help but appreciate the care and attention to detail that went into every aspect of the cruise. It was clear that Seahorse Cruises was committed to providing an exceptional experience for all its guests.

A Sunset to Remember

The highlight of my time with Seahorse Cruises was undoubtedly the sunset cruise. Having enjoyed the day trip so much, I couldn’t resist the allure of experiencing the Blue Lagoon under the soft glow of the setting sun. As we set sail once more, the sky transformed into a canvas of oranges, pinks, and purples, casting a magical light over the Mediterranean.

Watching the sun dip below the horizon from the deck of the Kyumm was a sight to behold. The peacefulness of the moment, combined with the gentle sway of the boat, created a sense of serenity that was hard to match. It was a fitting end to a day filled with adventure and discovery.

As we returned to Bugibba, I reflected on the day’s experiences. The combination of stunning scenery, warm hospitality, and the thrill of exploration made for an unforgettable journey. For anyone seeking a truly relaxing and memorable trip in Malta, I wholeheartedly recommend this boat cruise. It’s an experience that captures the essence of island life and the beauty of the Mediterranean, leaving you with memories to cherish long after the journey ends.
