# Comino in June: What It’s Actually Like

June sits in that sweet spot on Comino where the island hasn’t completely lost its mind yet. By July and August, the Blue Lagoon looks less like a natural wonder and more like a floating car park of pleasure boats and day-trippers desperately pretending they’re having a peaceful experience. June gives you a preview of that chaos without quite the full horror show.

The weather is genuinely lovely. Twenty-four degrees with barely any rain means you’re getting warm, clear days with a sea temperature that’s finally worth swimming in after the cooler spring months. The light is extraordinary in the mornings, and if you’re there early enough, the water really does look like the photos. That part isn’t a lie.

But let’s be honest about crowds. June is not quiet. Europeans are already on school holidays in many countries, and Malta has figured out that Comino is the postcard shot everyone wants. By 10am, the Blue Lagoon boat taxis are running constantly and the main swimming area gets busy. By midday in peak June weeks, it’s genuinely rammed.

What’s open is essentially everything Comino offers, which isn’t much beyond the lagoon, some walking trails, and the small hotel. The island’s appeal is natural rather than commercial, so “open” mostly means accessible. The walking paths around the cliffs are beautiful and almost nobody bothers with them, which tells you something about what most visitors actually came for.

Is it worth it in June? Yes, with realistic expectations. If you want uncrowded paradise, go in April or October. If you want warm swimming weather without August’s absolute peak madness, June works. It suits swimmers, hikers, and people who book early boat transfers.

**One practical tip:** Take the first boat from Malta in the morning, ideally before 9am. Spend two hours in the lagoon before the day-trippers descend in force, then walk the coastal path while everyone else is queuing for the same photograph. You’ll experience two completely different islands in one day.
