The coast is indented into pebbly coves and rocky beaches; Hawaiian Beach, a pebble beach framed by high rocks, lies at the foot of the Radisson Grand Hotel Brioni.
Aquarium Pula occupies two Austro-Hungarian coastal fortifications here, Fort Verudela and the San Giovanni battery, part of the 19th-century defences that ring the city, and runs a recovery centre for loggerhead turtles.
