In the upper right, one woman lies on a flat rock, basking in the sun in a yellow bikini, with a straw bag and sandals nearby. Below her, to the left, another woman sits on the rocks, partially submerged in shallow water, wearing a bikini and white socks. Further to the left, a third person sits with their legs in the water, also in a bikini and white socks, appearing to be cooling off. A metallic structure with a bucket and hose is visible on the left side of the frame, suggesting a makeshift shower or water source. The clear, turquoise water of the Adriatic Sea laps against the textured red rocks, with white foam from the waves adding a dynamic element to the scene. The overall impression is one of a secluded, natural spot being enjoyed by people on a warm day.
