点评:There are many options for snorkelling and swimming trips aboard boats in Malta. Some of these are on large boats, run by relatively large companies - on board bar, a couple of hundred passengers, slides, places to jump off - you get the idea. We took one of these trips, and it was great. So great that we wanted another swim around the islands of Malta.
This time, we booked onto a smaller boat, with a smaller company, Luzzu Dream Waves. We arrived for 8:45am, and boarded a lovely looking boat - no slides, no large bar (although the captain does sell drinks) and far fewer passengers. What we got was better views, more destinations, and a far more personal experience. In short, this unassuming boat far outdoes its larger counterparts in every category.
You will not find a more attentive captain, nor will you find you find a more relaxed experience of this kind. The boat stops briefly at several points of natural beauty to enjoy the views, and makes three longer stops for swimming and snorkelling. The captains rents out snorkelling sets for €5 for the day, which is extremely reasonable. There is an opportunity for the captain here to big money from drinks - after all, he has a monopoly in sales whilst you are on the boat. However, prices are very cheap, and this feels very much like a personal choice from the proprietor, who is clearly not aiming to greedily profiteer. At one point, a passenger had a run in with a jellyfish - one of the hazards of sea swimming - and the captain provided treatment, guidance and care.
The waters around Gozo and Comino are of course beautiful, with Crystal Lagoon the best of the bunch, particularly if you are interested in seeing the fish, and this is just the perfect way to enjoy them. If you are making a choice on who to travel around the islands with, I would highly recommend that you book with Luzzu Dream Waves.
翻译:在马耳他,有很多乘船浮潜和游泳的选择。其中一些是在由相对较大的公司经营的大型船上 - 船上有酒吧,可容纳数百名乘客,有滑梯,可以跳水的地方 - 您明白了。我们参加了其中一次旅行,感觉很棒。太棒了,我们想再游一次马耳他群岛。
这次,我们预订了一艘较小的船,由一家较小的公司 Luzzu Dream Waves 经营。我们于上午 8:45 到达,登上了一艘看起来很漂亮的船 - 没有滑梯,没有大酒吧(尽管船长确实出售饮料),乘客也少得多。我们得到的是更好的景色,更多的目的地和更个性化的体验。简而言之,这艘不起眼的船在各个方面都远远胜过其大型同行。
您找不到比这更细心的船长,也找不到比这更轻松的体验。船会在几个自然美景处短暂停留,欣赏美景,并停留三次较长时间供游泳和浮潜。船长以每天 5 欧元的价格出租浮潜装备,价格非常合理。船长有机会从饮料中赚大钱——毕竟,当你在船上时,他垄断了销售。然而,价格非常便宜,这感觉很像是业主的个人选择,他显然不是想贪婪地牟取暴利。有一次,一名乘客与水母发生了冲突——这是海泳的危险之一——船长提供了治疗、指导和护理。
戈佐岛和科米诺岛周围的水域当然很美,水晶泻湖是最好的,特别是如果你有兴趣看鱼的话,这是欣赏它们的完美方式。如果你正在选择和谁一起环岛旅行,我强烈建议你预订 Luzzu Dream Waves。
