The park extends over a large marine and terrestrial area, including rocky shores, bays, steep slopes and the clear waters of the Adriatic and Ionian Seas. It is characterized by a rich biodiversity, with marine and terrestrial flora and fauna, including rare species of birds, fish and other protected animals.
