Visitng Cova del Llop Marí by swimming

You can swim from a beach about 100 metres away using a waterproof bag with all my things inside. I put the waterproof bag in my rucksack and used this as a float. On the day the sea was choppy and I was glad to have a flotation device for the short swim to the cave.

To preserve the natural beauty of the cave, L'Hospitalet de L'Infant townhall are restricting access to 10 people maximum at any one time and a maximum stay of 1 hour. The Cave is patrolled by a lifeguard in a kayak.
