Rt Ploca, located 3 miles NW of Otocic Arkandel and marked by a light, is a steep headland which consists of whitish rock. It is surmounted by the conspicuous ruins of a chapel and fringed by rocks.
A hill, standing 0.8 mile NNW of the headland, is prominent from seaward because its light color shows up easily against the darker mountains inland.
The currents in the vicinity of Rt Ploca are strong and onshore winds are reported to cause considerable eddies around it.
