Itinerary description
|
The Porer lighthouse was built in 1833 on the islet of the same name, 2.5 km southwest of the southern Istrian promontory and the town of Premantura. The 35-meter high tower is located right in the center of the stone building on the ground floor, with a concrete courtyard.
The islet is a rock 80 m wide, with three rather small landings. It takes a little more than a minute to cross the entire islet. Here the sunsets are considered among the most beautiful on the Adriatic.
BEACHES
It is recommended to swim in the places where boats usually land. The currents around the islet are very strong throughout the day, therefore, even excellent swimmers are not advised to move away from the coast more than fifty meters. The lighthouse keeper will gladly show you where you can swim at certain times of the day. Extremely strong winds develop during the day, so windsurfing is only recommended for experts.
SUBMARINE FUND
The underwater bottom around the islet of Porer with numerous sand and rock banks is very fascinating for all diving lovers. Due to the strong sea currents and the fact that cold and warm currents mix, the sea around Porer is an area extremely rich in fish, where many species of fish can be caught (almost 90% of those living in the 'Adriatic).

Vai a piano!
Ero indeciso se metterlo su difficile o molto difficile, poi ho messo su le ciabatte :)
