Planning a Gozo Carnival weekender? Check out the ferry timetable and plan ahead
Don’t miss a beat!

Heading to Gozo for a classic Carnival weekender? Best plan ahead to beat the traffic!   

It is, once again, that time of the year when our sister island is chock-full with flashy colours, loud music, and party-goers. The only thing that can bring a stop to all this fun is an hours-long wait for the Gozo Channel Ferry. 

That’s why we’re making it super easy for you to choose your ideal departure time and plan way ahead. 

This weekend, the ferry will be operating on a shuttle service.
