Comino
Malta · 5 m
Description
Comino (Kemmuna) is a small, largely uninhabited island between Malta and Gozo, best known for its famous Blue Lagoon. With its shallow, crystal-clear turquoise waters, the sheltered bay is one of the most spectacular natural settings in the Maltese archipelago and a popular spot for swimming, snorkeling, and boat trips. Other highlights include the quieter Crystal Lagoon, rugged coves, sea caves, and the historic Santa Marija Tower. The car-free island is covered in sparse Mediterranean vegetation and offers scenic coastal walking trails. Comino combines unspoiled nature with striking seascapes and ranks among Malta’s most famous excursion destinations.
