Is it worthwhile to visit Comino, Blue Lagoon, Gozo, and the Maltese coastline?
It is an idyllic getaway to the Maltese archipelago, therefore visiting the enchanted island is a must-do activity. It is regarded as one of Malta’s most popular attractions, especially in the summer. All year long, though, its spectacular blue crystal-clear water and majestic caves will never cease to astonish you with their magnificence.
What are Comino’s Hidden Gems?
Undoubtedly, Comino is one of the Mediterranean Coast’s most exquisite and alluring locations. In this petite gem, one can explore stunning views around the unique pristine turquoise waters. The thing is that Comino has much more to offer and most visitors only venture as far as the Blue Lagoon.
Here’s a list of further Comino sites that you really should not miss.
- Cominotto Island
The rocky structure, which is located just across the Blue Lagoon, features a tiny sand area. It comes with a special cave that you may swim through to reach the open sea and connects the island’s beach to the outer sea.
- Crystal Lagoon
Similar to the Blue Lagoon, it’s a stunning sheltered lagoon that can only be accessible by boat. Here, the sea is adorned by different shades of blue. It is the perfect location for cliff jumping.
- Saint Mary’s Tower
It is sometimes referred to as Comino’s Tower and was constructed in 1618 by the Grand Master de Wignacourt. The tower served as a defence and communication link between Mdina and the Ċittadella in Gozo. The main objective was to frighten the pirates and corsairs by acting as a watchtower. While there is no charge to explore the tower’s interior, donations are gratefully accepted.
- Santa Marija Beach
Private boats are typically the only way to reach this sandy beach. Its crystal-clear, shallow water make it an increasingly popular spot for friends and family to lay down towels and get a beautiful tan on an uncrowded beach. It is a great place to snorkel in shallow waters and possibly get a glimpse of seahorses hopping from one seagrass to another.
- Santa Maria Caves
Ideal location for an exhilarating swim or a leisurely snorkel among sea bream. It includes several of the most striking caves and caverns in Comino. A marvel of nature with an abundant marine life, hidden lagoons, cliff diving along with a free diving area.
- The Elephant Rock
A massive head-shaped rock with a trunk was carefully lowered into the sea. The creature’s body appears to have been cut out of the rock, with the exception of an almost visible eye socket. It is also known as Santa Marija Tunnel.
- Saint Niklaw Bay (Hidden Creek)
The now-defunct Comino Hotel is located on the sandy shore of Saint Niklaw Bay on the Northern side of Comino. Adjacent to it lies a secret stunning creek encircled by green pine trees.
- Daħlet il-Ħmara
It is a small inlet making it the ideal location for snorkelling in the turquoise water of Comino. Daħlet il-Ħmara is a much quieter bay with a rocky shoreline teeming with marine life.
- The Roofless Cave (L-Għar ta’ Bla Saqaf)
This gigantic gaping hole in the rock is the remnants of a collapsed limestone cave. It links to the ocean below by an enormous natural archway that is currently inhabited by a number of wild pigeons. From sea level, a small, concealed pebble cove is visible when entering the cave with a boat. The turquoise-clear seas in the roofless cave provide an amazing experience for swimming and snorkelling.
- Lovers Cave
Aside from the glistening pure turquoise water, in Comino you can explore the Lover’s Cave. It is a vast cave with a spectacular sandy beach accessible via a 50-meter-deep tunnel. You might opt to take a swim inside this amazing cave, which will provide you with an unforgettable unique experience.
- Pigeon Rock
Tal-Mazz Rock is another name for it since it is located close to the tal-Mazz cliffs on the eastern side of Comino. The indigenous local species and wildlife that is under protection finds refuge at Pigeon Rock. You can only get to this location in a shallow keelboat.
- Lantern Point Comino
Any adventurous diver who is willing to push their limits and step beyond their comfort zone should not pass up this dive site; it is perfect and fantastic. The undiscovered treasure is located at the tip of Comino and is easily reachable with a boat.
