Description

Morphology

The entrance is in the form of a large chamber, but without a roof. The cave is 1.5 metres high and has a depth under water of 2 metres, which gradually decreases until a small pebble beach appears at the end, only 12 linear metres from the entrance. It is another cavity excavated in dark green eruptive rocks that have risen between the cracks of the granite. The cave follows the NW direction.
