Description

Ishulli i Sazanit , an island, lies 2.5 miles NNW of Kep i Karlovecit and attains a height of 331m. Two almost equally-elevated peaks are separated by a depression and give this island, from a distance, the appearance of being two islands. The W side of the island is formed by vertical cliffs, up to 91m high in places, and is marked by several clefts and caves. The E side is less rugged, but is mostly inaccessible except at Porto San Nicolo in the NE part. A signal station surmounts the summit of the island. A light is shown from a prominent structure, 12m high, standing in the NW part of the island.
