It is the highest of the Saaremaa and Muhu cliffs, reaching a height of 20 meters (66 ft).[1] The entire cliff is approximately 2.5 km long.[2]
Panga cliff consists of at least three terraces. Besides the main cliff, there is a smaller cliff located further inland, as well as an underwater cliff with height about 10–12 meters (33–39 ft) jutting a few hundred meters into the sea.
