Getting There
From the Schooner Head road parking lot follow the great head trail and stay left at the forks. The trail will open up to the sea at the great head monument, and then a 2nd time about 200' later. The trail then briefly returns to the trees for about 40' before entering a much broader rocky opening, at which point you can head toward the ocean to descend and head skier's right to the cave. This area faces the sea and cannot be seen from the trail or the high ground above. Watch for cliffs and drop-offs on your way down to the cave. If you are familiar with the roped climbing at great head, the approach is similar, but this area is along the water's edge to the south of the left wall (heading right where you'd head left to reach that cliff's base).
