- Cruises from Bugibba: the pass is required to go ashore. It is free and you book it yourself on blcomino.com.
- Cruises with hotel pick-up (operator: Yippee): according to the operator, no pass is needed, because the boat stays at anchor and you swim from the boat.
- Another trip, or not sure? Message us on WhatsApp before you book.

Around the Blue Lagoon: caves, Cominotto, Gozo
