The name "Boca do Inferno" attributed to this place is due to the morphological analogy and the tremendous and frightening impact of the waves that make themselves felt there.
The characteristic that makes up the rock in the cliff is of carbonated nature. The erosion exerted by the action of rainwater which, containing dissolved carbon dioxide, causes the carbonate to dissolve. Through this process cavities and caves are formed inside the limestones.
It may well have been an old grotto.
At present, the sea with violent and merciless attacks rises in a deadly white foam for tens of meters, continuing to wear down the millennial rock, increasing in this way the spectacular and the size of the Mouth of Hell.
