Valletta Harbour Cruise

The Valletta Harbour Cruise is a boat tour departing from Malta's capital, offering views of the Grand Harbour, one of the deepest natural harbours in the Mediterranean and a site of continuous maritime activity since the Knights of St John fortified its shores in the sixteenth century. The cruise passes the limestone bastions, historic fortifications, and the Three Cities of Birgu, Senglea, and Cospicua that line the harbour's southern creeks.

From the water, passengers see Fort St Angelo, the Valletta waterfront, and the dockyard creeks that shaped Malta's naval history. Typical departures run in the morning and afternoon, with commentary covering the harbour's role in the 1565 Great Siege and the Second World War. Tickets generally cover the boat ride and on-board commentary; check available Malta attractions for current schedules and combined options.
