Comino (Kemmuna) and its surrounding islets are ecological treasures in the Maltese archipelago. Recognised for their rich biodiversity, they have been awarded Natura 2000 status – Europe’s highest environmental protection. Under the EU’s Habitats and Birds Directives, Comino has been designated both a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and a Special Protection Area (SPA). This status makes Comino not just a beautiful destination, but a protected natural reserve.
