The symbol of the place is known as "Kamen Brela," situated right next to the renowned Punta Rata Beach (Dugi Rat), and it is enchantingly illuminated by underwater lights at night. According to legend, "Kamen Brela" was created from a stone that tumbled down from Biokovo and submerged into the nearby sea, leaving behind its distinctive mark.
