Spanning 4,390 hectares, the peninsula is a haven of romantic landscapes, crowned by a peak reaching 696 meters. Its gently rolling hills, cloaked in deep emerald foliage, form a natural barrier that protects the city from seasonal storms. Around 20 streams—some flowing year-round, others seasonally—meander through the terrain, adding to its serene charm.

It offers visitors a rare harmony between mountain tranquility and coastal splendor—a perfect escape into nature’s embrace.
