Marlera Lighthouse

The Marlera lighthouse stands on the southeastern tip of the Istrian peninsula, about twenty meters from the sea, surrounded by low Mediterranean vegetation and a rocky coastline. It was built between 1865 and 1880, and the locals of Ližnjan call it Lanterna; it was permanently inhabited until 1970. The cape lies off the main tourist routes, with no facilities along the way, offering an open view of the sea and the surrounding reefs.
