7Blue Lagoon, Comino, Malta

The Blue Lagoon, on the smallest of the Maltese islands, Comino, is like stepping into a swimming pool in the middle of the Mediterranean. Its shallow waters are ideal for snorkeling, revealing a vibrant marine life beneath its surface. The intense turquoise color, contrasted with the stark white of the sandy bottom, creates a tropical vibe just a short ferry ride from Malta’s main islands.
