Caves and natural arches...
All along the Wild Coast, erosion has created many creeks, beaches, rocky escarpments but also dozens of caves, some of which are discovered at low tide and natural arches, such as that of Port Blanc. Attention, the wild coast is aptly named, even in calm weather, the waves are dangerous and swimming is prohibited. Stay cautious, bottom blades can pop up anytime and accidents still occur despite the municipality's recommendations.
