Caratteristiche

Località

Driving along the Garraf coast road (C-31) towards Sitges, past Vallcarca there is a widening on the right (km. 167.5) where the car can be left. From this point you must go back 250 metres and, once past the cova de la Llastra, leave the road and go down towards the sea, where the large cave mouth is visible.

Descrizione

Morfologia

Wide mouth. On the S side a descending platform leads to the end of the cavity. On the N side there is a kind of channel partially occupied by seawater and it ends blocked by large and medium rounded blocks.

Storia

Located by members of the ERE – CEC in July 2017. The situation coincides with what Lluís Astier calls spring no. 4 of Punta Ferrosa, although he does not indicate the existence of any cavity.

Despite having consulted different documents on the toponymy of the Garraf coast, no reference to this cave could be found, and it was named Cova Poruga while waiting to one day find out whether it has a specific name.
