An otherworldly religious shrine and grotto in a 20m-deep hollow, Cova de Sant Martí dates back to the 13th century. Find it at the foot of Puig de Sant Martí crag (behind the BelleVue Club Hotel); the tourist office can point you in the right direction. A pilgrimage leads to the cave on the Sunday after Easter.
