The Blue Lagoon at Comino nestles between the tiny islands of Comino and Cominotto in the heart of the Maltese archipelago. The shallow, sheltered bay glows in a striking shade of turquoise — a result of its pale sandy floor and often less than two metres of depth. Around 20,000 visitors arrive each year, many by ferry from Malta or Gozo. Outside peak season, when the boats stop running, an almost otherworldly quiet settles over the lagoon. It is among the most popular snorkelling destinations in the entire Mediterranean.
