Tower was open yesterday even though it isn't usually on Mondays (because the weather had been bad the previous days) - you can always check: raised flag = tower is open! The guy there was very nice, there's information about the tower in many languages, and you can see the inside and go enjoy the views from the top (for only a 2€ donation, bring cash!) Peaceful area, recommend if you want to get away from the overcrowdedness of the blue lagoon, and not very far of a hike from there (I also recommend walking around the little island, but that's another story)

Beautiful place. Saint Mary's Tower (Maltese: Torri ta' Santa Marija), also known as the Comino Tower (Maltese: Torri ta' Kemmuna), is a large bastioned watchtower on the island of Comino in Malta. It was built in 1618, the fifth of six Wignacourt towers. The tower was used by the Armed Forces of Malta until 2002, and it is now in the hands of Din l-Art Ħelwa. The tower is a prominent landmark of Comino, and can be clearly seen from both Malta and Gozo, as well as from the ferry between the islands.

Great sight, definitely a must see. Especially from the top! It has some nice explanation inside as well about the use of the tower, how many cannons and troops were stationed there over the centuries, etc. There is also an explanation about all the other historical buildings on Gozo inside, covering the bakery, cemetery, etc. Entry fee is 2€ per person and children have free entry. There is also a nice staff member inside chilling out and explaining things if you're interested. Go there!
