It’s official: the first Maltalingua boat party of the summer is pencilled in for Friday 19 June 2026. We’ll be sailing out on a traditional Turkish gulet, departing in the afternoon and running into the evening — the season opener that sets the tone for the whole summer programme.
Lessons finish at 15:00 that Friday
Our academics team is shifting the timetable so that all classes on Friday 19 June finish at 15:00. That gives you time to head back, get changed, and make your way down to the boat without rushing. Your teacher will confirm exact timings during the week.
What to expect
A few hours on the open sea, swimming stops at one of Malta’s quieter bays, food and a bar on board, music as the sun starts to drop. You’ll be on deck with classmates from across the school — different levels, different countries, all of you speaking English because it’s the one language everyone shares.
That’s the part that catches most students by surprise. Three hours on a gulet does more for your fluency than another grammar lesson, because you’re not practising English, you’re using it.
Bring
- Swimwear and a towel
- Sunscreen — reapply often
- A light layer for the evening
- A change of clothes
- Cash for the bar
Food and soft drinks are included. Final boarding point and time will be confirmed by the social-programme team a few days before.
