It is beautiful! First thing I wondered about was whether or not those cliffs are diveable. Been a long time since I cliff dived, but it pops into my head immediately on seeing them.

Magnificient cliffs.
Why is that cross there? Is it some kind of memorial (for drowned fishermen/seamen)?

I think the water could be quite shallow in front of the cliffs in the second picture, see how the waves break in front of them, if I interpret the picture correctly.
That first picture is stunning. Such beautiful colors.

Hi. Sorry, no cliff diving. Most of those cliffs have walkable beaches. Ouch!
As for the cross on the hill it really has no special significance, except perhaps that this is a very catholic community. There is an outdoor church, but they have conveniently located it on the top of a mountain.

What a lovely place!
And, oh, look, the godbotherers peed on it!

That, or there’s a church up there. I can’t imagine anyone trying to do a cemetery there.

Maybe catacombs, but yeah, not the normal kind of cemetery, they’d have to dig the graves with dynamite.
