You will find gorgeous rock formations here. The hike around the area is about 7km (2,5 hours), but if you are like me and stop every other second, count at least 4 hours. I also just enjoyed the sunshine and took it very easy, to enjoy this place to the fullest. The last part was a bit boring because you don't walk next to the coast anymore (from point 16 to the parking lot).

You will have great views of the basalt rock formations and if you are here in the summer (May-August) you get to see and hear a lot of birds too.
