    Tips

    Bufones (blowholes) are "coastal geysers" that are predominantly seen in eastern Asturias. These are narrow openings at the end of a cave directly on the coast, which extends above the cave ceiling into the open air. If a strong wave hits the opening to the sea, it is guided through the cave walls like a funnel to the upper opening. When the surf is strong, spectacular water fountains are created, similar to those of a geyser.
    When the sea is calm, all you can see are the huge holes at the top of the coast and, with a bit of luck, like at Bufon de Liencres, the opening to the sea.
