What people say

"The Blue Grotto, located in Southeastern Malta, is a famous (not to mention mandatory) tourist destination because of its stunning sea caves. The caves are a sight to behold, especially on days when the sun is shining and reflecting off the beach-like bottom. Tourists from all over the world take boat journeys to this popular spot to check out the breathtaking grotto (which rarely gets crowded, despite the big numbers). It also has crystal-clear, deep waters that attract swimmers, snorkelers, and divers. That’s not all, though. Talk to the man with the falcons from Sharp Sight Falconry if you see him, and if you get the chance, hold one in your hand."

"The Blue Grotto is a beautiful place to swim and is a great part of the island to see, especially as you will have a great view of Filfla, another one of the Maltese Islands. It is great for snorkelling due to the topography and the clear water. There are many boat tours (for €2-€5) to see the grotto from the sea and to go into the nearby caves. It is quite a unique and interesting activity to do. "
"Blue Grotto is located on the southeast of the island. This location is highly popular due to the grotto caves which can be accessed only by a boat. There is a 20-minute boat trip that is worth taking. "
