Comino
Comino is an island of the Maltese archipelago between the islands of Malta and Gozo in the Mediterranean Sea, measuring 1.35 square miles 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. One priest and one policeman commute from the nearby island of Gozo, to render their services to the local population and summertime visitors.
Cominotto
Cominotto (Kemmunett), sometimes referred to as Cominetto, is an uninhabited Mediterranean island off the northern coast of Malta. Measuring only 0.25 km² in area, Cominotto lies 100 meters to the north west of Comino. Between Comino and Cominotto lie the transparent, cyan waters of the Blue Lagoon .
Ċirkewwa
Ċirkewwa is a harbour situated on a point at the northernmost part of Malta. It is the site of the Ċirkewwa Ferry Terminal, where regular car ferries operate to the port of Mġarr on Gozo. In the summer, boat trips to Comino also operate, as well as organised diving excursions. As Ċirkewwa is a point on the northernmost end of the island, and not a town, there is no infrastructure besides the terminal.
St. Agatha's Tower
St. Agatha's Tower in Malta is similar in style to the Wignacourt towers, though it was completed in 1649 during the Grand Mastership of Giovanni Paolo Lascaris to a design by Antonio Garsin. It is also known as the Red Tower due to the colour it is painted.
Armier Bay
Armier Bay, is situated in the locality of Mellieħa, Malta. The Armier Bay consists of two beaches, the biggest beach is known as Armier and the other one as Little Armier. The sea of this bay is a crystal blue, like the sea of Blue Lagoon. This is because it is situated exactly in the opposite direction of Comino, like Ħondoq ir-Rummien in Gozo, and so makes it the most crystal blue sea around the island of Malta.
St. Mary's Tower
St. Mary's Tower or Santa Maria Tower, is a fortification on the island of Comino in the Malta archipelago. One can see it easily from the ferry that crosses from Malta to Gozo.
Faros beach
Faros beach, is situated in the locality of Larnaca, Cyprus, specifically in the village of Pervolia. The beach is sandy with a very wild and resistant to the sun vegetation around the beach . The sea of this bay is a crystal blue and with significant fish life. The beach attracts a significant amount of tourists due to its accessibility from Larnaca International Airport. At the beach there are a number of water sports, cantines and a small volley beach court.
Gozo Channel
The Gozo Channel is short stretch of Mediterranean Sea separating the Maltese island of Gozo from the northern tip of Malta. It is about 7 km long and varies in width from 6.7 km at its widest to 4.5 km at its northeastern end. At the centre of the channel are the two islands of Comino (inhabited) and Cominotto. The channel serves as a sea route link between the two islands with a ferry service running all year round from the ports of Mġarr Harbour and Ċirkewwa.
