Cominotto (Maltese: Kemmunett), sometimes referred to as Cominetto, is an uninhabited Mediterranean island off the northern coast of Malta. Measuring only 0.25 square kilometres (0.10 sq mi) in area, it is the largest uninhabited island of Malta. Cominotto lies 100 metres (328 feet) to the north-west of Comino.

Between Comino and Cominotto lie the transparent, cyan waters of the Blue Lagoon (Maltese: Bejn il-Kmiemen, literally "Between the Cominos"). Frequented by large numbers of tourists and tour boats daily, the Blue Lagoon makes it popular with divers and snorkelers.
