Cueva de Can Mar\u00e7\u00e0<\/h3>\n

Located in the north of the island, near San Miguel<\/a><\/strong>, this tourist attraction is open all year round. The Cueva de Can Mar\u00e7\u00e0<\/strong> dates back over 100,000 years and was formed by tectonic faults. Its entrance is located next to a viewpoint with stunning sea views and features a pleasant bar with a terrace. Visitors can take a 40-minute tour through waterfalls, streams, small lakes, and past stalactites and stalagmites, ending the visit with a small light and sound show. In summer, guided tours are available every half hour in several languages, allowing you to learn more about this ancient smugglers’ hideout. Given its unique location, it is also highly recommended to take a walk along the nearby cliffs. \"Cueva<\/p>\n

Cueva de Santa In\u00e9s<\/h3>\n

Located on the road from San Antonio<\/a><\/strong> to Santa In\u00e9s<\/strong><\/a>, near the parking lot of the Sa Capella restaurant, is the underground Chapel of Santa In\u00e9s<\/strong> or Cueva de Santa In\u00e9s<\/strong>, considered the oldest church in Ibiza<\/strong>. The cave is a sanctuary whose origin is explained through various legends. Some historians maintain that it was used as a place of Christian worship in the 3rd and 4th centuries and later also by Arabs. It fell into disuse in the early 19th century due to the risk of collapse and was forgotten until it was rediscovered in 1907 and restored in 1981. The cave of Santa In\u00e9s<\/strong> is privately owned and is currently not open to the public. Next to it is the hermitage of Santa In\u00e9s<\/strong>, a temple that was never consecrated and is now the curious restaurant Sa Capella<\/strong>. \"Cueva<\/p>\n

Cueva Na Coloms or Cave of Light<\/h3>\n

This spectacular underwater cave<\/strong> is located in the northwest area of the island. It is difficult to access, both by land and sea, as reaching it involves an unmarked trail of nearly two hours through forest and cliffs. To avoid problems, it’s best to hire a guide for a walking tour or organize a diving excursion. The Cueva Na Coloms<\/strong> or Cave of Light<\/strong> is named for the beautiful scene created by sunlight penetrating from the sea through the water-filled gallery into the cave. It should be noted that, having the shape of an inverted cup, the only way out once inside is to dive through the gallery that permanently floods it. Therefore, it is highly recommended to have diving experience and be accompanied by guides.<\/strong> \"Cueva<\/p>\n

Cueva des Culleram<\/h3>\n

Located on the road between San Juan<\/strong><\/a> and Cala San Vicente, 150 meters above the sea. In the Punic period, this cave<\/strong> was a sanctuary dedicated to Tanit, the Carthaginian goddess of fertility and fortune, and one of the most famous and important Ibizan deities. To this day, many visitors still leave offerings or flowers to the goddess Tanit. The sanctuary was discovered in 1907 and many prehistoric Bronze Age remains were also found there. Today, it is owned by the Consell de Ibiza<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
