Balun is a cove in the E coast of the island of Bisevo, just S after Hr Tocac .

The famous Blue Cave (Modra spilja) is situated in this cove. At noon, when the sea is calm, sunrays penetrating into the cave through an underwater opening are reflected from the white bottom, and illuminate the cave with a blue light while lending a silvery hue to objects under the water. The cave can be entered by small boats only. 

We can anchor in the bay and go to visit the cave.

Balun est une petite baie sur la côte E de l'île de Bisevo, au S, juste après Hr Tocac.
La célèbre Grotte Bleue (Modra Spilja) est située dans cette crique. A midi, quand la mer est calme, les rayons du soleil pénètrent dans la grotte par une ouverture sous-marine et sont réfléchis en blanc dans le fond. Ils éclairent la grotte avec une lumière bleue tandis les objets sous l'eau prennent une teinte argentée. La grotte peut être visitée par des petits bateaux seulement.

On peut mouiller dans la baie et visiter la grotte en annexe ou en plongée.
