First access to Noma island dates, special events, and experiences before they surface.
THE NOMA ISLAND EXPERIENCE
A Unique Venue at Sea
Imagine an island uncharted on any map, drifting solely at the whim of its inhabitants.
A mystical haven where time stands still.
Designed as a self-sufficient 1,750m² floating island, Noma Island redefines what it means to be at sea. Perfectly immersed in the heart of the Mediterranean, this exclusive venue offers a private and unforgettable setting unlike any other.
With two distinct areas – the poolside lido and Noma Island restaurant, both offering panoramic views of the sea, Noma island invites guests to sit back, relax and enjoy the unique experience in the heart of the Maltese Islands.
Open Every Day except during special events
About NOMA ISLAND
The team behind NOMA ISLAND understands that a concept of this scale will naturally attract attention and discussion. Innovation often does. History has repeatedly shown that new ideas are sometimes questioned, or even misunderstood, before they are fully appreciated.
NOMA ISLAND represents something new for the Mediterranean, and we are proud of that. It is the result of a shared vision among professionals who have a deep respect for the sea and believe that tourism can evolve in ways that are both responsible and inspiring.
The concept behind NOMA ISLAND is simple: to offer guests a unique experience at sea, away from the pressures and noise of everyday life on land, while operating according to the highest standards of environmental responsibility and maritime safety.
This vision is guided by three core principles.
Sustainability at the Core
NOMA ISLAND was designed and built with respect for the marine environment at its very centre. The ambition is clear: to demonstrate that tourism at sea can evolve in ways that respect and protect the environment on which it depends.
• Modern low-emission marine engines minimise atmospheric impact.
• Onboard water production systems reduce reliance on shore-based resources.
• A strict zero-discharge policy ensures that no wastewater, black or grey, is released into the surrounding sea.
• All waste generated onboard is collected, separated and transferred ashore by licensed eco-service vessels in accordance with established waste management procedures.
• All materials used in the construction, including the marine-grade aluminium hulls, are fully recyclable.
• Potential noise and light emissions have been carefully assessed through dedicated studies to ensure compatibility with the surrounding marine ecosystem.
A Place to Disconnect
NOMA ISLAND was never intended to replicate land-based nightlife. The vision is quite the opposite.
• A space where guests can step away from the pressures and noise of everyday life.
• An environment shaped by the openness and tranquillity of the sea.
• A setting designed for atmosphere, relaxation and a sense of escape.
• An experience that feels different from traditional venues because it is defined by the maritime environment itself.
A Living Maritime Platform
Unlike fixed coastal structures, NOMA ISLAND is a fully self-propelled vessel.
• The platform can adapt its location responsibly depending on weather and operational conditions.
• It avoids permanently occupying a single coastal site.
• The vessel operates under internationally recognised maritime regulations and certification standards.
• All operations are run by qualified maritime professionals and certified crew members.
• Safety procedures are designed to meet, and in many cases exceed, European maritime safety standards.
We recognise that introducing a new concept can bring curiosity, discussion, and sometimes scepticism. This is a natural part of progress in any open society. For this reason, NOMA ISLAND should ultimately be judged not by speculation, but by the way it operates in practice.
At its heart, the vision behind NOMA ISLAND is rooted in respect for the sea, responsible tourism, and the belief that thoughtful innovation can contribute positively to the Mediterranean experience.
THE LIDO EXPERIENCE
Your Noma Experience begins in style
You will be collected from a designated departure point at the time indicated on your ticket and a private boat will cruise you to the island on an approximately 15-minute journey.
Upon arrival, our hosts will welcome you to Noma and escort you to your reserved sunbed or cabana. From there, the day is entirely yours – unwind under the Mediterranean sun, savour bespoke cocktails, and immerse yourself in the island’s effortless elegance.
When the day draws to a close, guests are kindly invited to visit reception for check-out before boarding the return boat to the mainland, as scheduled on their ticket.
For those wishing to tailor their experience, whether to arrive later or leave earlier, private water taxis can be arranged at an additional cost. Because at Noma, time moves to your rhythm.
THE RESTAURANT EXPERIENCE
A dining experience shaped by the sea
Your experience may also begin with a private boat transfer to Noma Island or alternatively, a drop off by your own vessel. Upon arrival, our hosts will escort you to your reserved table, where panoramic sea views set the scene for an elevated dining experience.
Surrounded by open water, guests are invited to relax and savour refined cuisine in an atmosphere defined by elegance and calm.
At the end of your meal, a scheduled return boat may take you back to the mainland, completing an experience unlike any other.
Please note that swimming is not permitted for restaurant guests. Furthermore, no external vessels may berth alongside Noma Island; access is strictly limited to drop-off and pick-up only.
A WORD FROM THE MASTER ON DECK
You can tell a lot about people by how they move on the water. When everyone finds their rhythm, the island does too. That’s when the day really works.
