Head to Spain to feast your eyes on a sight that is unlike any other, the world's most beautiful cave, a sea cave at that.

What makes it all the more wonderful is that it formed almost 20 million years ago due to erosion! During low tides, visitors can easily access the beach that leads to it.
The cave is surprisingly magnificent from the inside as well and its impressive dome is almost as great as a cathedral, a natural one at that. Its lofty for the lack of an apt word, and its first sight might just make you chuckle in delight! For the best views, go early on a sunny summer day; while it is also great place to be at in winters, rainy days are better avoided for a trip to Benagil.
