The boat slips away from Mellieħa and the Maltese coastline falls back into a line of low cliffs and limestone until Comino appears as a bright slice of rock and turquoise water. Salt breezes cut through the Bluetooth soundtrack on deck; passengers peel off to the rail as the captain points out the squat Comino Tower and the first cuff of caves.
