Cave
Access The entrance to the cave is at the foot of the steep slope of the cliff, halfway between the car park and the coast guard look-out.
Description Access to the cave is via a tight rift, approximately 10 metres deep, which leads to a 13 metre passage ending in a 5 metre pothole. The seaward passage ends in a chamber around 1.5 metres wide by 7 metres long. The cave appears to have been very much larger but has 'run-in'.
