Cova de Can Marçà
A limestone cave about 100,000 years old in the north coast cliffs, once a smugglers' hideout, with a light-and-music show and an artificial waterfall.
Cova de Can Marçà sits in the sea cliffs beside Port de Sant Miquel and formed about 100,000 years ago. Inside are stalactites, stalagmites, and traces of ancient water levels, and it is said to have been a hiding place for smugglers. Visits follow a guided tour of about 40 minutes, which ends with an artificial waterfall show synchronized to lights and music. The viewing platform at the cave mouth overlooks the bright blue waters of the Port de Sant Miquel bay, with superb views. Admission prices vary on site. The cave is slippery, so wear non-slip shoes.
