In specialist magazines this has been described as 'one of the world's top ten bays. Go on a winter's day and you get to enjoy the winter sea, go in May and you will get a whiff of the summer air, mixed with sea pines.

You can reach the bay by car but in summer it is best to park in Sistiana and reach the bay on foot as the walk is beautiful, or you can take the free shuttle bus supplied by the Trieste authorities between June and September. Further information can be obtained from the public relations office of the Duino-Aurisina region.
