Tiny marine caves about 5 m long in Mont-ras (Baix Empordà), at cala Massoni.

Characteristics

Location

These small caves must be located at both ends of the hidden cala Massoni, where a jetty was built. The first of the caves is right next to the aforementioned jetty and about 50 metres towards the back of the small cove, while the second is found on the opposite side, almost directly opposite. Approximate coordinates.
