Čepić field
Today a field, although in the beginning of the 20th c. it was still the large Čepić Lake. The lake was drained through a canal that was dug out, and its water discharged into Plomin Bay. The lake bottom is inclined from north to south, so during the Ice Age when the Boljunšćica River blocked the major drainage with all its alluvial material, flooding occurred and the field was transformed into a lake. Its surface varied from five to nine square kilometers, and its depth reached up to three meters depending on the precipitation and water flowing in from the Boljunšćica. During maximum level, the water emptied into the Raša River. The lake was overgrown with reed and rich in fish and bird species. It was also known for its infamous malaria mosquitoes. When the 4.2-kilometer-long drainage tunnel towards Plomin Bay was completed in 1932, the lake was gradually emptied and turned into arable fields.
