Setting Sail to Comino

As someone who has spent countless hours riding the waves and exploring the hidden gems of the Caribbean, I was eager to experience the allure of Malta’s Comino Island. The promise of the Blue Lagoon and the sea caves had me packing my snorkeling gear and setting my sights on this Mediterranean paradise.

The journey began at the Marfa Bay pier, where I boarded a boat that would take me across the channel between Malta and Comino. The anticipation was palpable as the captain skillfully navigated the boat towards the cliffs of Comino. The sea caves, carved by the relentless waves, were a sight to behold. As we ventured into these natural wonders, I couldn’t help but feel a deep connection to the ocean, reminiscent of my surfing days.

The Enchanting Blue Lagoon

Arriving at the Blue Lagoon was like stepping into a dream. The water, a mesmerizing shade of turquoise, was framed by rugged rocks and pristine white sand. It was a scene straight out of a postcard, and I was eager to dive in. The lagoon, protected by surrounding islets, offered calm waters perfect for swimming and snorkeling.

I descended the steep stairs to the shore, where umbrellas and deckchairs awaited. The water was refreshingly cool, and as I waded in, I felt the familiar embrace of the ocean. Swimming across to the islet of Cominotto, I discovered hidden beaches and caves, each more enchanting than the last. The tranquility of the lagoon, interrupted only by the gentle eddies of passing boats, was a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

A Day in Paradise

The Blue Lagoon was bustling with activity, yet it retained an air of serenity. Vendors selling exotic drinks and snacks added to the vibrant atmosphere, and I indulged in a refreshing pineapple drink as I soaked up the sun. The hours slipped away as I lounged on the deckchair, savoring the beauty of this idyllic spot.

As the day drew to a close, our boat returned to whisk us back to Marfa Bay. The experience had been nothing short of magical, a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. The Comino Island Tour had delivered on its promise, offering a glimpse into the breathtaking beauty of Malta’s coastline. For those seeking a unique island adventure, the Comino Island Tour is a must-visit destination.
