About
This quarry was actively used from the 19th century until 1970, supplying limestone for the rest of the island. For the most part, workers completed the job without the aid of electricity. Now abandoned, the quarry has been preserved for its cultural significance. Today, it stands like a man-made canyon, where rugged rock faces coexist with the encroaching natural landscape.
Know Before You Go
The Santa Ponsa Quarry is accessible to the public. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and exercise caution on uneven terrain, as paths around the quarry can be steep and rocky.
