The Bay of Montecara (Montecaran: ia Bàia de Montecara) is a body of water nearly surrounded by the main island of Montecara.
Geology
The bay was formed by the pyroclastic flow of the now-extinct volcano Monte Cara. It is notably deep for its relatively small area, and its unusually cold water by the standards of the region makes it attractive to fish, making it known for its abundant sea life. The deep channel also makes it accessible to shipping.
