Between the island of Malta and Gozo, one finds a true gem – Comino. Comino is a small islet with truly postcard worthy views and home to the Blue Lagoon. The Blue Lagoon is just a fifteen-minute boat-ride across the water from Mġarr Harbour.

Without a shadow of a doubt, this is one of the best swimming spots in Malta. The calm, crystal-clear waters of the lagoon reflect the cyan blue of the sky over a pure white sandy seabed. This long, narrow bay surrounded by rocks and a few small areas of sand is a natural swimming pool perfect for floating, splashing, snorkelling, scuba diving or simply relaxing.

We could speak about this magical place at length, however, the truth is that you have to visit it in order to appreciate its beauty. There are many companies offering tours by boat which will get you there and we are sure that when it’s time to return to the main island, you will wish you could spend just some more time there!
