Such an amazing trip!
4 Hour – Boat Trip on August 31, 20264 adults1 child

We had the most amazing boat trip with Steven today and couldn’t recommend him highly enough. From the moment we got on board, he was incredibly friendly, chatty and attentive, and made the whole experience feel completely relaxed and personal. Steven took the time to ask what we wanted from the trip, while also making some brilliant recommendations of his own. He took us to some absolutely stunning spots to swim and explore, and was a fantastic guide throughout, knowledgeable without it ever feeling like a “tour”. More than anything, Steven is just a genuinely lovely guy and great company, which made the day even more enjoyable. Nothing felt rushed and he really went out of his way to make sure we had the best possible experience. Without a doubt one of the highlights of our holiday. We’ll 100% be booking with Steven again next time we’re here. Thank you for such a brilliant day!

You HAVE to book your trip with Steve!!!!!!
8 Hour – Boating Adventure on August 28, 20265 adults

This was our favorite experience of our entire trip! Not only was the boat beautiful and in mint condition, but Steve treated us like family from the first moment we met. He was so kind, and he personalized our trip based on our interests. he took us to the most incredible spots to swim and snorkel, and of course showed us all the beautiful gems along the way (caves, lagoons etc.). He also started our trip with a really cool surprise. He took us to see horses in the water that he and his family foster and care for (I know, they’re really great people). I’m not sure if this will be accessible each trip, but it was amazing. We’ll be booking this experience the next time we’re in Malta. Steve, thank you, YOU’RE THE BEST!!!! And thank you to your beautiful wife and daughters for their warm, Maltese hospitality!!! <3

Fantastic late afternoon trip.
Half Day Afternoon/, Sunset on July 6, 20262 adults

We had a fantastic afternoon / early evening boat trip and would thoroughly recommend it. The captain was friendly, knowledgeable and a great host, sharing lots of interesting information about Malta and pointing out places to visit next time we come to visit. We stopped at several beautiful coves and bays, giving us the chance to swim in the most crystal-clear blue water. It was a real highlight of our trip. The departure from Spinola was also really convenient, making the whole experience easy and stress-free. If you’re looking for a relaxing way to see the Maltese coastline and enjoy some incredible swimming spots, this is an excellent choice.

So good, we booked it twice!
Half Day Afternoon/, Sunset on June 16, 20262 adults

Captain Steve made our vacation in Malta absolutely unforgettable! Starting with the pick up service from the ideal location near our apartment, taking us to see dolphins in the morning, the overall well thought-through itinerary for the day that was perfect for us individually and not just the standard tourist destinations, up to the caring presentation of the snacks and wine, we could not have asked for a better day on the water. Booking with Captain Steve was the highlight of our week and I can only recommend it to anyone wanting a special, private day exploring Malta from the sea!

Fantastic day
8 Hour – Boating Adventure on May 26, 20262 adults1 child

We has such a fantastic day exploring the caves, lagoons and coastline of Malta. Steven was very friendly and knowledgeable, and the boat was perfect for a full day on the water - plenty of room up front for sunbathing, and comfortable seating with shade at the back. There's even a toilet and a place to get changed if you need to. The coolbox was great for our snacks and drinks, and the snorkelling gear came in handy. Steven was happy to move at our pace, but made sure we saw all the best locations. We even saw a pod of dolphins that he had a hunch would be in a certain spot! An absolutely fantastic day out that was truly memorable. Thanks Steven, we hope to be back one day 👍
