Private Day Charter on Amazing Mowgli

Eight hours of Malta afloat beats most tours. A private day charter on Amazing Mowgli lets you shape the route around classic swimming spots like Comino’s lagoons, with the crew handling the sailing and safety. You start the day with coffee onboard, then spend anchor time where conditions allow.

I love the private group setup. It’s just your group on the boat (up to 12), and the vibe stays relaxed and personal, not one-size-fits-all. I also love that snorkeling gear, bottled water, coffee or tea, and soda are included, plus there’s a restroom onboard.

One caution: the plan is weather and safety driven, so restaurant lunches and more ambitious stops may change when conditions are rough or access isn’t possible.

Key Things To Know Before You Go

• Private sailing for up to 12 people means more control over the day.
• Coffee on board sets a nice, unhurried start.
• Comino anchor stops can include Crystal Lagoon and Blue Lagoon for real swim time.
• Snorkeling equipment is included, but flippers may be limited in quantity.
• Lunch is flexible, not included, so decide whether you want a restaurant stop or bring your own.
• On-water comfort is practical, with a restroom onboard and mostly simple seating.

Your Own Malta Day on Amazing Mowgli

If you’re the type who likes to pick your own pace, this charter style fits well. You’re not trying to keep up with a big group. Instead, your captain and crew guide the day, and you get to spend more time in the water, where Malta looks best.

Amazing Mowgli is also set up for a full day at sea without constant logistics. You’re given bottled water, coffee and/or tea, and soda/pop. There’s a restroom onboard too, which matters more than you’d think once you’re out near the Comino side of things.

Your group size is capped at up to 12, so it stays intimate. And since it’s offered in English, you can ask direct questions and get clear answers about what’s possible that day.

Price and Value, Broken Down by Group Size

The charter price is $844.76 per group (up to 12) for about 8 hours. If you fill the max group size, that pencils to roughly $70 per person. If you’re a smaller group, the per-person cost rises, so value depends on how you plan to travel.

What makes it feel like good value is what’s included. You’re not just paying for movement across water. You’re paying for a private sailing day with:

• Bottled water
• Coffee and/or tea
• Soda/pop
• Snorkeling equipment
• Restroom onboard
• A private boat and crew time

Lunch and alcohol are not included, but the boat day is already stocked with the core “comfort stuff.” That lets you spend your money on the part you actually have control over, food and drink preferences.

Meeting Point: Where the Day Starts in Tal-Pietà

You meet at Sailing Yacht Mowgli, Holidays in Malta, at Triq Sa Maison Tal, Tal-Pietà PTA 1701, Malta. The tour ends back at the same meeting point, so you avoid the classic “now what” scramble.

It’s described as near public transportation, which is useful if you’re pairing this with other plans around Malta. You’ll also receive a mobile ticket, and confirmation comes at booking time.

How the 8-Hour Route Works (and Why It Matters)

This isn’t a rigid, timed checklist. The route is described as customizable, with possible anchor stops depending on conditions. That flexibility is exactly what you want on a sea day, because Malta’s coastline changes mood fast based on wind and weather.

A typical rhythm looks like this:

• Sail out and set up your swim stops by anchor
• Spend focused time at the lagoon and bay areas
• Add extra passing-by viewpoints when time allows
• Return to base by the end of the day

Stops can include Armier Bay Beach, Crystal Lagoon (Comino), Blue Lagoon (Comino), and St. Peter’s Pool (especially if sailing south). Expect a lot of time on the water, not a long string of short photo stops from shore.

Armier Bay Beach: A First Swim-Friendly Break

Armier Bay Beach is listed as a possible stop, often anchored. You’re looking at about 1 hour here.

Why this stop works for many groups is simple: it’s a straightforward swim break early in the day. When you start with water time, everyone warms up to the rhythm of the charter. You can relax on the deck, then get in, swim, and reset before the Comino highlights.

If wind picks up, the captain may adjust the exact plan. But even as an early stop, Armier Bay is a useful “starter” for people who want sea time without overcommitting right away.

Crystal Lagoon of Comino: Short Anchor Time With Big Views

Crystal Lagoon is another possible anchor stop on the Comino side. You should plan for about 1 hour.

This is the kind of stop where time matters. An hour is usually enough to get a swim in, check the water, and enjoy the look of the lagoon from the boat. It’s also the kind of moment where being on a private charter helps, because you’re not trapped in a tight schedule of crowded shore access.

Practical note: because this is an anchor stop, the boat stays in the safe sailing position. You’ll spend the time in the water around where the boat is set up.

Blue Lagoon: The Longest Swim Slot of the Day

Blue Lagoon is one of the main draws, and it’s listed as a possible stop for about 2 hours. Like the others, it’s described as anchored.

This is your biggest swimming block on the day. Two hours is a rare gift on a charter format, because it gives you time to do more than one “mode” of water time: a first swim, a second drift or snorkel session, then time to cool down back onboard.

If you’re serious about snorkeling, this is the moment to focus on it. Snorkeling equipment is included, and this is where you’ll likely want to use it most.

One more thing to keep in mind: some plans can change with weather and boat access needs. So if you’re laser-focused on a specific water experience, be ready for the captain to adjust the exact route for safety.

St. Peter’s Pool: When Sailing South Makes Sense

St. Peter’s Pool is listed as a possible anchor stop, especially if sailing south of Malta. Expect about 2 hours.

This stop helps round out a day that otherwise concentrates only on Comino. It’s also a nice contrast: instead of only lagoon-style swimming, you get a different coastal feel depending on the day’s sailing plan.

If your group loves the “switch it up” effect, this is the stop that can add variety. Even if you don’t spend the whole time fully in the water, it gives you more chances to enjoy the coastline from the deck.

The Passing-By Moments: Scenic Time Without Extra Pressure

In addition to set anchor stops, the day includes time for passing by for picturesque views. There’s also mention of passing by with a possible stop on anchor, depending on what the captain decides.

This part is valuable because it doesn’t take over the day. You still get movement and scenery, but you’re not forced into long shore walks or complicated transfers. It’s a good fit for mixed groups: swimmers, non-swimmers, and anyone who just wants a relaxed day.

Lunch Options: How to Keep Your Day Flexible

Lunch is not included, but you can choose how you handle it:

• Stop at a restaurant, or
• Bring your own food and drinks

In other words, you’re not locked into paying for lunch onboard. But you do need to plan based on what the captain can realistically do that day.

A key consideration: sea conditions and access can affect how smoothly a restaurant lunch works. If you want the best odds of a stress-free meal, bring your own backup options. That way, even if a shore stop is harder than expected, nobody goes hungry.

Alcoholic beverages are also not included. You can bring your own drinks, and if you tell the provider ahead of time, they can take care of it. Soft drinks, coffee/tea, bottled water, and soda/pop are included, so you’re already set for non-alcoholic refreshment.

Snorkeling Gear: Included, but Flippers Might Be Limited

Snorkeling equipment is included, and the day is structured around swim stops where you’ll actually use it. That said, gear availability can be practical rather than perfect.

One detail to know: flippers may be limited in number, and you might find the selection more limited than you’d expect. If you rely on a specific flipper size, it’s worth being prepared with a plan that doesn’t assume the exact fit for everyone.

If you’re a casual snorkeler, the included masks and equipment should cover what you need to enjoy the water. For more gear-sensitive snorkelers, you’ll feel happier when you’ve accounted for sizing realities.

On-Board Comfort: Restroom Included, Seating Is Simple

The boat includes a restroom onboard, which is a real plus for a long day at sea. You’ll also have a sun deck for lounging during anchor time.

Comfort is more functional than plush. Some seating can feel simple, and thick cushions aren’t guaranteed. If you want a place to lie down comfortably, plan for the fact that you may be using your towel more than you’d use a lounge cushion.

The upside is that this is the kind of boat day where the water is the main event. You’re not choosing this for luxury interior time.

Crew Style: Safety First, Then Tailored Sailing

The crew approach is safety-focused and very hands-on. Several named captains and crew show up across different days, including Graziella and Grace (spelled either way depending on the booking), and first mate Pavel in at least one description.

What you should take from this is that you’re not just renting a boat and hoping for the best. You can expect active guidance, especially when conditions change. If you want a specific lunch stop or a certain kind of swim time, ask early and be ready to adjust.

For a smoother day, think of your captain as the person optimizing safety and route feasibility. You’ll get better results if you communicate preferences without insisting that everything will be possible no matter what the weather decides.

Who This Charter Fits Best

This private day charter is a strong pick if you:

• Want a private group experience with no mixing with strangers
• Care about real swimming time near Malta and Comino
• Like the idea of included snorkeling gear and onboard refreshments
• Are traveling with friends or family and can fill more of the up-to-12 capacity for better value

It’s also family-friendly in the sense that children can join, as long as they’re accompanied by an adult. And since the tour says most travelers can participate, it’s broadly accessible for a typical group.

If you want a guaranteed shore-restaurant lunch every day, or you’re betting heavily on more adventurous add-ons, be cautious. Weather and access can change the route.

Should You Book Amazing Mowgli?

Book this charter if you want a calm, private way to experience Malta’s famous water areas, especially Comino anchor time at places like Blue Lagoon and Crystal Lagoon. The included extras, coffee onboard, and snorkeling gear make it feel like a complete day rather than just a “boat ride with stops.”

Consider passing or adjusting expectations if:

• You want a restaurant lunch as the centerpiece (it can depend on what’s workable that day)
• You’re picky about snorkeling flipper sizing
• You’re expecting lots of onboard cushioned lounging or guaranteed access to every possible water-side feature

If your group is flexible, likes swimming, and values the control that comes with a private charter, Amazing Mowgli is the kind of day you’ll remember as a highlight of Malta.
