The island is a popular excursion site in the Budva area. It has three bigger sandy beaches with a total length of 840 metres (2,760 feet), and numerous small beaches around the island, accessible only by boat.
Deer inhabit the uncultivated part of the island. The island is called Školj by locals, which comes from the word "Školjka" which means shell, because of its shape, while the youth refer to it as "Hawaii" island.
