Comino is simply amazing! No wonder it's featured in so many movies! I don't know if I saw anything more beautiful!
Join me as I take a walk across the island to the Tower of St. Mary (which just got close the minute I got there, but that's not a problem). The view is just spectacular! Convince yourself.

Stunning view of Comino from Saint Mary's Tower
Saint Mary's Tower (Maltese: Torri ta' Santa Marija), also known as the Comino Tower (Maltese: Torri ta' Kemmuna), is a large bastioned watchtower on the island of Comino in Malta. It was built in 1618, the fifth of six Wignacourt towers. The tower was used by the Armed Forces of Malta until 2002, and it is now in the hands of Din l-Art Ħelwa.
The tower is a prominent landmark of Comino, and can be clearly seen from both Malta and Gozo, as well as from the ferry between the islands.[1]

My Choice - Comino's Rocks, Malta: Roses from the South & Belinda
The island of Comino's rock formation is truly interesting and beautiful. We're showing you photos of these rocks and caves as seen from the Ferry.
To complement these photos we chose Roses from the South, a waltz by Johann Strauss II played by André Rieu and Belinda played by Alain Morisod and the Sweet People.

COMINO:
Comino (Maltese: Kemmuna) is an island of the Maltese archipelago between the islands of Malta and Gozo in theMediterranean Sea, measuring 1.35 square miles (3.5 km2) in area. Named after the cumin seed that once flourished in the Maltese islands, Comino is noted for its tranquility and isolation. It has a permanent population of only four residents.
Comino is known to have been inhabited by farmers during Roman times, but for long periods in its history it has been sparsely populated, privately owned, or abandoned entirely.
Its rugged coastline is delineated by sheer limestone cliffs, and dotted with deep caves which were popular with pirates and marauders in the Middle Ages.
ST MARY'S TOWER:
St. Mary's Tower is the most visible structure on the island. Its background dates back to 1416, when the Maltese petitioned their king, Alfonso V of Aragon, to build a tower on Comino to serve as an early warning system in case of invasion, and to deter marauding Turks, pirates, smugglers and corsairs from using Comino as a hiding place and staging ground for devastating sorties onto the sister islands of Malta and Gozo. Two years later the king levied a special tax on imported wine to raise funds for this project, but diverted the monies into his coffers; the island remained undefended for another two hundred years.
A tiny Roman Catholic chapel dedicated to the Sacred Family Upon its Return from Egypt is located above Santa Marija Bay. Built in 1618, and enlarged in 1667 and again in 1716, the chapel was originally dedicated to the Annunciation. It has been desecrated and reconsecrated at least once in its history, when Comino was devoid of residents. The earliest record of a chapel on this site dates back to the 12th century, and can be seen in a navigational map of the period, located in the National Maritime Museum and Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London. Mass is celebrated in the chapel on Saturday nights and Sunday mornings for the residents, hotel staff and tourists.
St. Mary's Battery, built in 1716, at the same time as various other batteries around the coastline of mainland Malta, is situated facing the South Comino Channel. It is a semi-circular structure with a number of embrasures facing the sea. The Battery still houses two 24-pound iron cannons, and remains in a fair state of preservation mainly due to its remote location. Its armament originally included four 6-pound iron cannons. The Battery underwent restoration in 1996 by the Maltese heritage preservation society, Din l-Art Ħelwa. St. Mary's Redoubt, an additional defensive structure, was also constructed in 1716 on the northern coast of Comino, however it was subsequently demolished. The Knights also constructed army barracks on Comino. In the early 20th century the barracks were periodically used as an isolation hospital.
Comino Hotel, with its two private beaches, a 1960s development, is located above San Niklaw Bay. There are also holiday bungalows by Santa Marija Bay. There is a police station located between the holiday bungalows and the chapel.
Between Comino and adjacent islet of Cominotto (Maltese: Kemmunett) lie the transparent, cyan waters of the Blue Lagoon (Maltese: Bejn il-Kmiemen, literally Between the Cominos). Frequented by large numbers of tourists and tour boats daily, the Blue Lagoon is a picturesque bay with a white sandy base and rich marine life. It is popular with divers,snorkelers and swimmers. Other beaches on Comino include St. Mary Bay (Maltese: Ramla ta' Santa Marija) and St. Nicholas Bay (Maltese: Bajja San Niklaw).
Comino is a popular location for filmmakers. It appears in the movies Troy, The Count Of Monte Cristo and Swept Away. Most notably, St. Mary's Tower on Comino was featured in the film The Count of Monte Cristo, where it doubled as the Château d'If.

Gozo is an inviting holiday destination, rich in cultural traditions, surrounded by ancient myths and stories of modern-day miracles. There is a varied choice of Gozo accommodation, and when you stay at any local Gozo hotel or holiday villa, you can be sure of a warm welcome from the famously hospitable residents. Legend has it that Gozo was the basis for Ogygia, the island where the nymph Calypso bewitched the Homeric hero Ulysses for seven years. Enjoy a holiday in Gozo and you'll find out just how spellbinding the island can be - in fact, seven years will hardly seem like enough time to explore all the attractions surrounding your Gozo holiday accommodation! Life on Gozo is more restful and rural than on the neighbouring isle of Malta, and many visitors find a Gozo holiday makes an enchanting retreat. The green hills of Gozo stretch from coast to coast on this lush island, and the clear, warm waters offer exceptional Malta diving opportunities for holidaymakers, or wonderful picture postcard views from resorts such as Mgarr. Don't be fooled by the island's laid-back lifestyle though - Gozo holidays offer no shortage of vibrant late-night entertainment! Maltese Carnival Week attracts many visitors from Malta to Gozo, particularly to the village of Nadur. Cheap holiday accommodation on Gozo is often scarce during the March carnival, as crowds of costumed revellers celebrate this colourful cultural event; tourists and locals alike will fill up the holiday apartments and villas of Gozo in order to join in the festivities! Village feasts honouring patron saints are also an important Gozo tradition, and you're likely to experience a celebration like this during a Gozo summer holiday in one of our resorts such as San Lawrenz and Xaghra, as villagers celebrate with fireworks and live music. From luxury 5 star hotels to cheap self catering accommodation, you can be sure of finding the perfect spot to spend your getaway when you contact Malta Direct about our Gozo package holidays.
Comino is a jewel of an island situated between Malta and Gozo; the discerning few who choose to stay on Comino can expect to enjoy a truly luxurious holiday experience, swimming in Comino's iridescent blue waters or indulging in lazy days on the sandy beach. The famous Blue Lagoon of Comino, with its white sands and diverse marine life, is a haven for snorkellers and divers. In fact, some say Comino's Blue Lagoon is the best Malta diving site in the Mediterranean! One of Comino's most famous landmarks is St. Mary's Tower, which dates back to 1416, and was restored between 2002 and 2004. The historic watch tower is the island's most notable structure; tourists from hotels and bungalows around Comino visit this site to take in the spectacular views. Comino is also a bird sanctuary and nature reserve.
