The seabed, at a depth of 20 m, is rocky, with some blocks and some sand. The entrance faces northwest and is very narrow; its emerged part is only one fifth of the total entrance.

The Blue Cave is a magnificent space where the boat enters so that all those who want to swim can do so. The water is clear, emerald green in color, where each visitor interprets the color according to the visual impact produced by the sun, which brings magical reflections from this water. In this immense cave, there is no wave action, making it very safe to swim. The density of colors makes blue prevail among all of them and their shades, hence its name “Blue Cave.”
