The third largest island in the Republic of Malta, located between the main island of Malta and the island of Gozo, Comino covers an area of only about 3.5 square kilometers, but is known for its stunning natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere. The island's most famous attraction is the Blue Lagoon, a stunning blue-green color and crystal clear waters, ideal for swimming, snorkeling and sunbathing, which attracts tourists from all over the world.
