Cova de Can Marçà, Natural cave system in Puerto de San Miguel, Spain.
Cova de Can Marçà is a sea cave on the northern coast of Ibiza with multiple chambers formed by water erosion over millennia. The chambers contain stalactites and stalagmites illuminated by colored lighting that guides visitors through the underground passages.
The cave was used by smugglers in the 20th century, who stored goods there and left marks on the walls to navigate the tunnels. These marks remain visible today and tell the hidden story of this place.
Multilingual guided tours share information about geological formations while incorporating water and light displays to demonstrate the natural processes.
The best time to visit is from November to April, when conditions are most stable and the cave is less crowded. Wear shoes with good grip, as the path through the cave involves uneven surfaces and slippery areas.
The entrance sits on a cliff face and offers views of the Mediterranean through natural rock openings. On calm days, you can see the sea shimmer in the distance and grasp the beauty of the coastline from this vantage point.
