The stop

Rangko Cave

Rangko Cave holds a natural pool beneath beautiful stalactite formations — swimming here feels like having a private pool cut out of the rock.

The water is salt, thought to arrive through a gap connecting the cave to the sea. It is cool, still, and completely unlike anything else on the route.
