Interesting to know
Local residents retell a legend about cape Zub (tooth) and its unusual name. The legends has it that the wife of a local fisherman stood on a rock near the lighthouse waiting for her husband who went to the sea with his boat. However, when the husband landed the shore again, he looked at his wife in disbelief who was standing in front of him smiling and showing her beautiful new teeth. Since then the rock on cape Lanterna has been called cape tooth (rt Zub) and has been associated with magical powers. Even today in Novigrad there are many people who know this unusual story.
