How We Got Started
How We Got Started
Outdoor Explorers Malta is a family-run business, led by Janet and Sam, with Sam’s brother Josef as a core part of the team. Even our two kids, Sol and Lalo, are always nearby, proudly lending a helping hand and growing up around the boats, just as we did.
The sea has always been part of our life. We have spent our entire lives in tourism, but long before this business existed, Sam and Josef spent their childhood either on their grandfather’s boats or snorkelling and spearfishing around Gozo and Comino. Those early years shaped a deep respect for the sea and a natural understanding of Malta’s coastline.
We are also well travelled, having explored coastal destinations around the world, which taught us what truly makes a great experience at sea: space, flexibility, calm water, and human connection.
Outdoor Explorers Malta was created so guests don’t just arrive as clients, but leave as friends. Our focus has always been personal service, honest advice, and showing Malta, Comino, and Gozo the way we know them best — unhurried, uncrowded, and experienced properly from the sea.
Favorite Part Of The Business
## Favorite Part of the Business
The best part of running Outdoor Explorers Malta is **sharing our love for the sea with people from all over the world**. Every day is different, shaped by the weather, the light, and the people on board, which keeps the experience genuine and never routine.
We especially enjoy seeing guests relax once they reach the water, whether it’s their first swim in Comino, a quiet snorkel away from the crowds, or simply cruising along the coast in calm conditions. Those moments, when clients stop feeling like tourists and start feeling at home on the sea, are what matter most to us.
What makes it even more special is knowing that many guests **leave as friends**, returning year after year or recommending us to family and friends. Being able to work together as a family, on the water we grew up with, and create unforgettable memories for others is what truly makes this business rewarding.
