Snorkelling is swimming on the surface of the water with a full-face mask or 2 piece mask, a snorkel (breathing tube) and fins, which allows you to have your face down in the blue water and still breathe. You can also practice free diving, this technique you will be shown by the instructor. Snorkelling in Malta is a fun activity with friends and family of all ages, especially in clear water where you can see fish and water creatures.

Of course it is easier to snorkel when you are comfortable in the water, but it’s not required to be a good swimmer. If you feel you’re not a capable swimmer it is recommended to ask us to give you a snorkelling vest.

These 2 islands are surrounded with crystal clear water, with a good variation of habitats, form big boulders to sandy patches, you can spot different marine life from Fish, Octopus, cattle fish and different Flora

We have numerous bays; most of them are little secret coves, where you get the beach to your self. Depending on wind and weather we choose a sheltered cove with clear waters. The guide first will give you a short induction, teach you some signs and safety procedures, ear equalizing etc, from there we will start from the shallow waters and than start exploring the coast (going deeper or not depending on the experience of the client)

There are 3 primary pieces of equipment that most snorkelers use.

Dive Mask – A full face mask (or dive mask) allows you to see underwater while protecting your eyes and keeping your nose out of the water. It’s important that the mask you select has a good fit. If the mask doesn’t fit well, you will experience water leaking into the mask. The best and most comfortable masks have a “silicone skirt”. The skirt is the soft and pliable substance that conforms to fit your face and prevents water from entering the mask. Silicone skirts are also free from Latex, which some people are allergic to.

Snorkel – A snorkel is a hollow curved tube that allows you to breathe while you are face down in the water. While you’re snorkeling and looking down into the water, the end with the mouthpiece is in your mouth and the other end is sticking out of the water so that you can breathe.

Fins – Fins provide extra propulsion and allow you to swim like a fish! Always make sure that they are a good fit. If the fins are too tight they may cut off circulation to your feet, and if they are too loose they may easily come off while snorkeling. Make sure they are a snug fit, but you should be able to wiggle your toes at least a little.

To make sure your mask fits correctly to seal out the water, hold it up to your face lightly. The mask face skirt should make contact with your face all the way around the skirt. Once the mask skirt is touching your skin, inhale gently through your nose. The mask should create a vacuum and seal on your face, not allowing any more air to be inhaled. The mask remains on your face until you stop inhaling, indicating that the mask is a good fit.

First, make sure you have a mask that is a good fit for your face, as described in the FAQ previous question. If you feel you have a mask that fits properly then adjust the straps for a comfortable fit but do not over-tighten. Sometimes over tightening can cause a leak and is not as comfortable too. Also, make sure to clear your hair from your face so you get a good seal. If you have a mustache, use sun block or Vaseline on your moustache to help establish a seal.

Try washing the inside of your mask with mild dish soap or toothpaste to remove remaining manufacturing compounds that can make the lens fog up. Just before entering the water rub defog solution inside your mask and rinse it out. It is important to make sure to rinse after using defog as the solution can damage or sting your eyes. If you don’t have any defog solution, saliva works too, but either way rinse after using!

If your mask fits your face well, is comfortable, doesn’t leak and has tempered glass, then yes, you can use your mask for scuba diving. It is recommended that you have a mask with a silicone skirt for comfort. If you have any concerns whether your mask is okay for scuba diving then take it to a scuba shop to seek a professional opinion.

Yes you can; however be aware that if your mask floods, you may lose your contacts. An alternative to wearing contacts is to purchase a mask with prescription lenses. It’s a simple and relatively inexpensive procedure to install prescription lenses into certain models of snorkeling masks. Prescription lenses and masks that accommodate them are available at Scuba stores.

It is important to learn how to clear water out of your snorkel. If your snorkel top drops below the surface while snorkeling, or if the snorkel fills with water when you dive under, first return to the surface, making sure the top of the snorkel is above the surface of the water, and then exhale sharply to clear the snorkel of water.

When diving under the water with any type of snorkel, as a precaution, it is always good to clear the snorkel when back at the surface by exhaling sharply as described above.

Scuba diving requires additional equipment such as regulator, a buoyancy compensator and dive tank, etc., and allows you swim and breathe underwater. Snorkeling allows you to breathe with face down while you are on the surface of the water. Scuba diving requires personal training from a scuba instructor and there is a certification process. Snorkeling is much easier and with some help you can lean how to free dive to a good depth.

Rather than using a life jacket it is better to use a snorkeling vest. Snorkeling vests are worn on the front and held in place with straps around the back and chest. You inflate the vest by blowing air into it with your mouth. Even a little air in the vest can make a nervous snorkeler much more confident, and fully inflated vest allows one to rest comfortably at the surface. Snorkeling vests are recommended for people that are not confident swimmers. They are becoming more popular every year at the world’s best snorkeling destinations and aboard many of the major cruise lines.

The best times to go snorkelling in the Maltese islands are on warm sunny days when the waves and wind are minimal (our instructor will choose the best cove for you). It’s best to go snorkeling when the sun is out.

Segway are very easy to learn, after and induction about the Segway PT . We will provided one on one training session with the Segway instructor. Clients on average it will take them under 2 minutes to feel confident on the Segway. That said we would give you training until you feel 100% confident to tour with us.

Riding the Segway PT feels like nothing you’ve ever experienced, because there’s never been anything like it. Step on and your instinct will be to steady yourself, as you would on anything with two wheels. But almost immediately you’ll realize that the Segway PT is balancing for you, almost like it has become an extension of you. Just lean forward a little and you’ll see that the Segway PT isn’t moving you on its own, it’s moving in response to you and what you tell it to do. It all feels natural, safe, and instinctive. That’s what riding a Segway PT feels like.

Our treasure hunts will take place in the island of Gozo or Comino, it depends on which version you choose.

Yes, each treasure hunt is customized for the group, so we would love to add your riddles, or get you to visit a specific place to answer a question

We suggest that each team should number between four and six people. Obviously you can include more people per team and some of our clients have done the treasure hunts with as few as one or as many as twelve members per team but our experience suggests that a good team dynamic is established with four to six people.

We do a lot of different versions of treasure hunts, and all can be customized for the clients

Each pack includes a sheet of Briefing Notes telling the teams how the treasure hunt is structured and advising them about bonuses and rules

There is also a sheet of observation questions. This is the sheet that gets the teams around the route. All the clues are visual clues so no knowledge of the area, nor of the history of the area is required.

Our treasure hunts are all written in English, so participants will need to be able to read and understand English.

What many people do, when the treasure hunt participants are made up of different nationalities, is ensure that each team has at least one native English speaker on the team.

However, the clues are not too cryptic, and, since they are visual and directional, most overseas visitors can complete them without too much difficulty, albeit a little extra thought might be required.

All our treasure hunts can end in a restaurant or wine bars where we car arrange a meal or buffet.

Team Building activities

Our Gozo quests make a great friends, work or corporate team building activity and are designed to ensure that participants work together to solve a series of clues and find the answers to observational and photo challenges, whilst also experiencing and discovering all the hidden parts of Gozo island, that can be so easily overlooked or missed. You’ll be surprised by how much of the island there is still to discover. Explore Gozo in a fun way with one of our customized team building challenges
