Name: Cueva Cobijeru (sea cave; there are two others); also spelled Cobigeru or Cobiheru.

Location: 600m from Buelna.  Easterly road from Buelna passes under railway with narrow bridge.  From the small carpark on the right just after the bridge a path leads (past two caves and over the stream) to the Cobijeru inland beach.  The inland entrance to the cave is immediately to the East of this.
