What are sea caves used for?

They are not usually used by Man except recreationally. Naturally, sea caves become be refuges for various invertebrates that feed on the dead seaweed that accumulates in them. In some places sea-caves became popularly associated with 18-19C smugglers using them as hiding-places for their booty, but there is little real evidence for this. If the smugglers knew about a cave, so would the local "Preventy Men" (Customs) & any informants!


Did smugglers keep the contraband in caves?

Rarely if ever. There are a lot of romantic myths about smugglers and the dreadful "wreckers", and this is almost certainly one of them. For one thing, sea-caves are not ever so common, and those that may have been suitable by access and safety for use by smugglers are even less common. Don't forget the old-time maritime smugglers had to rely on sails and oars, so they would have kept well clear of dangerous cliffs and rocks. Secondly, it's logical to assume they would have wanted to land their contraband and get it away inland, even if only a mile or so to a friend's barn, as soon as possible. Hiding it in caves, even if physically possible, would have doubled the risk of being seen seen - first in landing then in retrieving the hoard. That's not to say they didn't use natural hiding-places, but such spots would need to offer efficient disguise while being easy and safe for the smugglers. There may have been a few occasions in which smugglers had to hide their ill-gotten goods in sea-caves, but I think it would have been an emergency measure on realising the "Preventy Men" (Customs) were on their tail. Inland caves have been used occasionally for literally shady purposes, but if you think about it from the 18C smugglers' point of view, farms or perhaps their own cottages probably offered the safest hiding and transhipment places. A famous poem (by Walter de la Mare?) about smuggling may contain grains of truth in its references to nocturnal journeys, and presents for squire and cleric. If so such upstanding pillars of the community could probably have supplied suitable hiding-places in manor or church.
