Steeped in myth, Gozo is thought to be the legendary Calypso’s isle of Homer’s Odyssey – a peaceful, mystical backwater. Baroque churches and old stone farmhouses dot the countryside. Gozo’s rugged landscape and spectacular coastline await exploration with some of the Mediterranean’s best dive sites. 

 The island also comes complete with historical sites, forts and amazing panoramas, as well as  one of the archipelago’s best-preserved prehistoric temples, Ġgantija.

 To discover the true magic of swimming, diving and enjoying all the activities the sea has to  offer, Comino is the Island that must be explored. The island’s Blue Lagoon, with its safe bathing  in bright turquoise waters, makes a memorable day out by boat.

 The island is tiny in size, with just one hotel, but it is otherwise uninhabited and is surrounded by  the most scintillating and transparent waters in the Mediterranean. A natural swimming pool, many snorkel, scuba dive and  anchor their yachts for a day of swimming and relaxing. In winter, Comino is great for walkers and photographers. Without urban  areas or cars, there is no pollution or noise – just quiet and serenity.
