Isola Comacina is a small gem nestled in the heart of Lake Como, renowned for its millennia-old history and natural charm. It stands out as one of the most picturesque spots in the region.

The island is dominated by ruins of ancient churches and buildings, testament to its historical significance as a religious and cultural center during the medieval period. Among the most notable remnants are those of the Basilica of San Pietro, destroyed in the 13th century, and the complex of the Church of Santa Maria Maddalena, adorned with frescoes and ancient columns still standing amidst the lush greenery of the island.

Annually in June, Isola Comacina hosts the traditional Feast of San Giovanni, a celebration dating back to antiquity that draws visitors from around the world for its religious ceremonies, fireworks displays, and lakeside banquets. This festivity provides a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in the local culture and savor the typical cuisine of Lake Como.
