If you think you know what a day at sea looks like in Malta, guess again because Santa Maria Watersports is here to take it up a notch...or two!

While many firms provide boat rentals or crowded group excursions, Santa Maria Watersports has established something altogether different: a private, premium wake boat charter experience based around performance, adventure, and exclusivity.

At the heart of it all is the Nautique G25 Centennial Edition 2025, the most advanced wake boat in the world and the only one of its kind in Malta.

This is not a self-drive rental where you are simply handed the keys and left to figure things out on your own. Every charter is fully crewed and professionally operated, with a licensed skipper and certified instructors onboard throughout the day. The experience is completely private, meaning every booking is tailored to one group only. Whether guests are families, groups of friends, experienced riders, or complete beginners, the entire day is designed around them by the Santa Maria Watersports team.

Starting with the boat itself; it truly is a statement piece that combines luxury, power, and the latest wake technology into one incredible platform. Within minutes of leaving the marina, the coastline begins to open up and Malta looks entirely different from the water. With music playing through the boat’s premium sound system, the sea stretches endlessly ahead, and the pace of everyday life disappears almost immediately.

What makes Santa Maria Watersports stand out from traditional charter companies is where the experience takes people. Half-day and full-day bookings venture beyond the standard coastal routes and travel towards Comino and Gozo, reaching hidden bays and open stretches of water inaccessible from land. These are places most visitors never see: quiet coves, crystal-clear lagoons, towering cliffs, and calm turquoise water that feels completely untouched.

For many guests, the watersports themselves become the highlight of the trip. If you’re a beginner...fear not! Newbies often arrive unsure whether they will even stand up on a wakesurf board, only to find themselves riding confidently within twenty minutes under the guidance of the onboard instructors.

More advanced riders can push further into wakeboarding or foiling, carving across open water or gliding silently above the surface. Every piece of equipment is included and prepared in advance, allowing guests to focus entirely on enjoying the experience rather than organising gear or logistics.

Yet the day is about far more than sport alone. Between sessions, guests swim directly off the back of the boat, relax under the Mediterranean sun, and take in views of Gozo’s dramatic cliffs in the distance. The sense of freedom is difficult to replicate elsewhere. There are no crowds, no fixed tour schedules, and no rushing between stops. It is simply your group, your boat, and an entire day built around adventure and exploration.

By the time the charter returns to the marina, most guests realise they have experienced more in a single day than many people manage during an entire holiday. It is this combination of luxury, adrenaline, scenery, and privacy that has quickly positioned Santa Maria Watersports as one of Malta’s most unique experiences.

What’s more is that the company has also built a growing rider community around the experience. Alongside private charters, Santa Maria Watersports operates a community chat where individual riders can join shared charter departures. This allows solo travellers and smaller groups to access the experience without needing to book the entire boat privately, while also connecting people who share a passion for watersports and life at sea.

Santa Maria Watersports is offering something genuinely rare: a world-class wake boat experience that blends high-performance watersports with the beauty and exclusivity of the Maltese islands.
