The northern coast of Telascica is bare, due to long years exposure to the wind which caused erosion in the area.

On the south coast of Telascica, one can find a pine, olive and fig trees as well as low scrubs of Mediterranean vegetation. This part of the coast is detached from the open sea by a narrow, forested ridge that ends as a steep shoreline.
