About The UNESCO Sites
Comino, Malta’s smallest inhabited island, is a true paradise for nature lovers and water enthusiasts. Located between Malta and Gozo, this car-free island is just 3.5 square kilometers in size but offers an escape that feels worlds away. The star attraction is the Blue Lagoon, a sheltered bay with crystal-clear turquoise waters, soft white sand underfoot, and dramatic cliffs—an ideal spot for swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, or simply unwinding under the sun.
Beyond the lagoon, Comino offers scenic walking trails, wild herbs, and untouched beauty. Visit Santa Marija Tower, a 17th-century coastal fort once used to guard against pirates, or explore hidden caves along the coastline. With no urban development and only a few residents, Comino is the perfect place to disconnect and reconnect with nature.
During summer, the island buzzes with day-trippers, but come early or stay overnight to enjoy its serenity. Whether you're a thrill-seeker looking for aquatic adventures or someone seeking peace and natural beauty, Comino delivers an unforgettable Maltese island experience.
