An intertidal cave system with 3 entrances - one small and round on the E side of Riddled Kaim. A wide SW entrance and and a mid W entrance are separated by a rock pillar on W side. Water inside only near high tide. It is navigable (11/10/19) through Riddled Kaim at HWS. There are a lot of rocks which make kayak passage tricky at mid tide.
