Many protected and endemic species such as: endemic orchids, butterflies, Mediterranean monk seal, crabs and more can be found. Also many birds. The Kamenjak area has beautiful nature, a blue sea and very nice hiking trails. Despite the tourism, there are very nice bird species to see! Typical marine species can be seen along the coast, such as medelhavstrut, toppskarv and svarthuvad mås. In the many shrubs on this peninsula, birds such as sammetshätta, törnskata, turturduva and sommargylling can be observed. In the early twilight, a high chance of dvärguv. Also keep an eye out in the sky for flying biätare! Please note, entrance to the cape is approximately 4 euros per person.
