See English version below

La combinación de la erosión marina y los procesos kársticos actuando sobre los acantilados calizos labran curiosas formas en esta zona. El socavamiento de la base del acantilado por parte del mar y el desplome de bloques parece ser el origen de este enorme puente.

English version

The combination of sea erosion and the karstic processes acting on the karst limestone cliffs till strange ways in this area. The undermining of the base of the cliff by the sea and the collapse of the blocks appears to be the origin of this huge bridge.
