Many cruises mention both lagoons. Here is how they compare.

Where is the Crystal Lagoon?

It is a small cove on Comino’s coast, reached by boat. It is often included on sea-cave cruises rather than as a place to spend hours.

Which is better for swimming?

The Blue Lagoon has shallow, sandy areas good for wading. The Crystal Lagoon is deeper and clearer, better for confident swimmers and snorkellers.

Can I walk from the Blue Lagoon to the Crystal Lagoon?

Comino has walking tracks, but the coast is rocky and the Crystal Lagoon is best seen from a boat.
