- Isola Comacina
The only island of Lake Como
Comacina Island is the only island on Lake Como, once the site of a Roman fort and a medieval settlement. The island is located just offshore from the village of Ossuccio, with which it forms a small bay, which is recognized as the most peaceful place on the lake.
The History
The island is rich in history: when the Lombards invaded northern Italy, the island was one of the last outposts of the Roman empire to resist, and slowly filled with houses and churches, all known as Cristopolis. They even say the Holy Grail has been deposited here for a while.
Fireworks Display at the end of June
Every year at the end of June, the traditional Festival of San Giovanni lights up Lake Como with a spectacular fireworks show over Isola Comacina. The event features a mesmerizing pyrotechnic and music display, usually starting around 10:30 PM, and draws crowds of boats and spectators gathered around the island and the shores of Ossuccio. It’s one of the most iconic summer celebrations on the lake, combining history, folklore, and breathtaking views.
