Marlera Lighthouse near Ližnjan

Marlera Lighthouse near Ližnjan is an exclusive holiday object and tourist attraction. It was built in 1882, renovated in 2012. It is located 4 kilometers from Ližnjan and 10 from Pula, and marks the southeastern horn of the Istrian peninsula. 4 kilometers from Ližnjan mean also 4 kilometers of aromatic Istrian landscapes, deserted and uninhabited, giving to the lighthouse a scent of magic and mystery. Though it is not a mystery that Marlera Lighthouse is a magical place, anchored in lavender and rosemary plants, with a 1000-square-foot garden, 25 meters away from the sea. Peninsula Marlera is bordered by beaches, rocky and wild, but with incredibly clear and clean sea, and easy access to it with sunbathing areas. The underwater is sandy and attracts many people inlove in the underwater activities, due to its beauty, and due to the ship's wreckage nearby. The coast is ideal for long sunny afternoon hours overlooking the islands of Cres and Lošinj, and the impressive Velebit mountain in the distance. Like many other lighthouses that the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy had left on the Adriatic, Marlera is a monument to old times and a reminder of the modernization of life, romantic ode to the forgotten skills. Today, the light of the lighthouse is automated, and there is no lighthouser with the family in the ground house underneath the tower. The romanticism and the spell of the Mediterranean still lives there, that can be replaced by nothing. See for yourself if you rent apartment, room or holiday house in Ližnjan.
