As inconspicuous as the hinterland looks from the sea, it is just as beautiful up close. The Tafoni rocks in particular are an adornment for the far-reaching view that one catches from the mountain peaks.

Tafoni are weathered rocks on the inside, which "dissolve" shell-shaped from the inside out. This always creates curious forms. Can you recognize the Roman with his helmet? Or is it something completely different in your eyes?

The Roman with the helmet is clearly one of my childhood stars... BERT!
