Park the car at Foyrnon Beach (a wonderful lonely beach that invites you for a refreshing bath after the tour, so don’t forget the swim suit). The short walk to the cave aside the shore and emerald waters is well sign posted.

Nice short hike to the cave, easy to manage even with children. On the way back, the beach and the sea beckon. No entry (as of August 2021)
