The hiking trail essentially leads through its mouth - you can see the (almost) white "teeth" and the black sooty "lips" (from breathing fire?): The goatherds used to light their campfire in the cave in the evening.
You can see the sea from the street through the "eye" (the famous hole in the rock): if the dragon is blue-eyed, the weather is good.. ;)
