Features

Pont d’en Gil already presents an impressive sight at the surface – an enormous arch decorates the end of the cliffs.

The entrance to the cave extends underwater over 12 m, but already at a depth of 6 m it is wide enough to dive into. Inside the cave, there are two paths: either you follow the cave to a chamber where you can surface, or you follow a narrow passage to a second cave, from which you can reach English Beach.

By the way, the name English Beach comes from the legend that this is the only beach where even the English are spared from sunburn.
