Speedy Gonzalez is in the house! Gozo Fast Ferry Ltd is announcing that will it start operating a fast-ferry service between Gozo and Valletta from June, using two state-of-the-art high-speed passenger craft.

The company — backed by Bianchi Group and Merrill Investments, who are experienced shareholders in the provision of transportation services both locally and internationally — has notified Transport Malta of its intention to offer this service after the market was liberalised.

Your trip on the high-speed ferry

Your trip is guaranteed to be an efficient one as well as respectful towards the environment as the company has invested in two modern, environmentally friendly, high-speed passenger catamarans, that are equipped with the latest technology to operate in full compliance with the requirements of the Port Notice issued by Transport Malta.

The high-speed ferry

Each vessel is capable of comfortably carrying 300 passengers per trip, and will make the journey between Mġarr, Gozo to the Grand Harbour in Valletta in less than 45 minutes. Top stuff, we say!

Gozo Fast Ferry Ltd is collaborating with Malta Public Transport, the operator of the bus service, to ensure users — including those who hold a Tallinja Card — are offered a value-added, seamless, interoperable, and fast journey to customers.

Passengers will also be able to pay for their trip using contactless bank cards, mobile phones, and smartwatches to ensure quick boarding and alighting.

Details on schedules and pricing will be announced in due course. You can check out the website for more information.
