Insider tips

Bring a high-aperture lens if visiting during late afternoon to capture the transition of the light on the archipelago.

Wear sturdy footwear as the approach involves uneven, rocky terrain typical of the Istrian coastal paths.

Carry sufficient water, as there are no immediate vendor facilities at the exact viewpoint coordinates.

What to avoid

Do not attempt to scramble down the cliffs directly from the viewpoint, as the limestone is brittle and unstable.

Etiquette

Respect local flora by staying on designated paths to prevent erosion of the limestone cliffs.
