Cova de Can Marçà, the smugglers' cave

Above the cliffs of Port de Sant Miquel, in the island's north, the Cova de Can Marçà formed over more than 100,000 years, drop by drop, in the limestone rock. Small red and black marks left by smugglers to find their way back to the sea are still visible on its walls. It can only be visited with a guide, on tours of about 40 minutes, and it is open all year round; tickets are bought online for a time slot or directly at the cave.
