Description
Morphology
Cave at sea level, with a generous porch. The progression of the cavity is found through a small window suspended at the end of the entrance porch; once this rise is overcome, one reaches a chamber with large blocks. On one side of the chamber of the blocks there is a small shaft that gives access to a small room at a lower level.
Progression
On the floor of the entrance porch a cemented platform has been prepared as a landing stage. The progression continues through a small window suspended at the end of the porch; once the rise is overcome one reaches a chamber with large blocks. Above one of the blocks the upper conduit can be observed, which communicates through a laminar passage with the upper mouth beside the coastal path. The lower room has a narrow conduit that communicates again with the main entrance of the cave.
History
Known since long ago by the people of the area, although unpublished speleologically.
Documented by Montse Mañosa and Jordi Navarro in July 2022.
