Uphill path from the lighthouse trail, a narrow, rocky, moderately difficult climb. It's a beautiful cave carved into the rock, with marvelous views of the mountains and the sea.
Cueva en la Sierra Helada. Está fuera del camino avituual y tampoco está señalizada, aunque se ve bien. El acceso no es fácil.
