Small sea cave nearly 9 m long at Cala Dolça (Tarragona), formed by a single gallery 8.70 metres long.

Characteristics

Location

Within Cala Dolça – la Fonteta. Between the Cova gran del Roc and a small torrent that comes down from the Cala de la Móra development. Almost exactly at the point where the cove begins to curve, and hidden behind a large block emerging from the sea, there are three small caves. The one situated directly behind the large block is the Cova del Mig. Very approximate coordinates.
