Description
Morphology
Small sea cave with a 10 m route. The mouth is elongated. At 6 metres from the entrance there is a somewhat narrow passage, and the final small chamber is reached, which is wider than the rest of the cavity but of modest height.
Hydrology
The submerged part is not deep enough to cover us and allows entry into the interior without difficulties. The floor of the final small chamber has two spans of water.
Progression
Entry is without difficulties through the submerged part. At 6 metres from the entrance there is a somewhat narrow passage, compromised in case of rough sea, which leads to the final small chamber.
History
The only data we know are those provided by members of the SIS – CE Terrassa, who explored and surveyed it in August 1987.
