Ensenada Grande Rock Formations

Isla Partida, Ensenada Grande, Rock Formations

The coves of Ensenada Grande are bordered by these steep cliffs with sheets of rock overhanging softer rock which is eroded at the base by the wave action.  Honeycomb formation is often seen in this rock due to gasses that were unable to escape when the rock was formed.
