Hiking in the unique Cala Portals Vells and into this fascinating cave with so much history ... The story tells that during the 15th century, a sailor and his crew were caught in a terrible storm in the bay of Palma. Scared, they made a vow that, if they were saved, they would build a place to honor for the statue of the Virgin of their ship, where they would reach land.The wind pushed the ship into the Portals Vells bay, where they discovered the cave and found protection. They decided to place the statue of their Madonna there, carved an altar in the rock and decorated the walls with inscriptions and religious drawings. Today the statue is moved and make space for our water break before heading towards the top of the cliffs. #CalaPortalsVells #Hiking #Holidays #madonna
