St. Anthony Channel (Croatian: Kanal svetog Ante) is a strait connecting Šibenik Bay to the Adriatic Sea. It was protected as a significant landscape in 1974. It is more than 2000 metres long and between 140 and 220 metres wide.[1] It has become popular since walking trail was built alongside channel.[2] The place is perfect for a variety of activities such as biking, walking, swimming and sightseeing. The most beautiful attractions of the channel include St. Nicholas' Fortress, located at the entrance of the channel, , located in the middle of the channel and the nearby "Hitler's Eyes" bunker.[3] There is a viewpoint with panoramic view of Šibenik near the cave.
