The park’s thirty-foot-high limestone cliffs feature sea caves naturally carved by the sea. These dramatic formations can be best appreciated from a boat trip along the coast. Their grandeur has earned them the name “The Palaces.”
Cape Greko National Forest Park also boasts warm sea temperatures ranging from 16°C to 28°C, and water visibility reaching up to 40 metres. Combined with the striking scenery and vibrant marine life, these conditions make the area a favorite destination for divers.
