Characteristics

Location

Between Punta Boquera and Cala Calavera, at the height of the reef called Roca del Moro, known for the danger it poses to navigation, the elongated mouth of the Cova II del Moro is easily seen. From there one must follow W where a series of parallel passages are visible; we enter the southernmost one (the widest) and at its end the mouth opens, very hidden and oriented toward the N. Approximate coordinates.
