It's always nice to go caving when in Mardel. The circuit is maintenance free, which is great for kids to get into.

A beautiful place! It seems the Virgin was waiting for you, she was so excited, I came back! Everything was nice and beautiful; affordable Santeria and exclusive place. I recommend it if you are in Mar del Plata!

What a wonderful place! The cave has a sanctuary, a chapel, a shrine, and a small museum (costing $8,000). There's also a small market selling items dedicated to the Virgin Mary. The sun was shining on the Virgin Mary's face when we visited—it was amazing! We took the "Olitas" train, which passes through the Los Robles neighborhood, the port, and this cave. Highly recommended if you're looking to quickly explore Mar del Plata (costing $10,000 per person).

Although it's a place of religious worship, it needs maintenance, and the hours of worship are not set. The open area where the Virgin Mary is located is outdoors, and the route of the Way of the Cross is beautiful. It's much warmer when the weather is nice and the sun is shining.
