Comments

  • Famous snorkeling experience. Colored fishes, crystal water.
  • The real name is "Bejn il-Kmiemen". Blue Lagoon is of course a touristic name, i.e. invented for money. The high percentage of English place-names in the Maltese islands shows just how much they have been prostituted.

  • I wanna be there!
  • When I first went there in 1955, the little bay containing the rough landing stage was known as 'Silver Bay', because of the colour of the sand. Later the whole area was christened 'Blue Lagoon' as tourists started to visit the Maltese Islands.
