If you visit the coves of Benidorm, this is a place you shouldn't miss. The views are absolutely worth it! I recommend going at midday to see everything illuminated. The access to the cave's surroundings is to the left of the wall of the Benidorm viewpoint, located right next to it. It's marked by human footprints and clearly identifiable steps. This first descent is very easy and suitable for everyone. Getting into the cave gets a little more complicated. I recommend going with someone and having very basic climbing skills, so you know how to hang yourself from the rock at a height of about 1 or 2 meters and then be able to climb up to exit. It's a very small and safe drop, but it's only suitable for adventurers! πŸ˜‹
