Crystal and Fantasy Caves ~ Nature's Jewellery Box

Crystal Cave was found in 1884 by the Wilkinson's, owners of the property where the caves are located. The magnificent crystal stalactites and stalagmites surrounding a clear blue azure lake were formed over 30 million years ago. Proper illumination has been installed and even the formations on the bottom of the lake are clearly visible. Fantasy Cave has been linked to Crystal Caves so both can be seen in one tour. Rare chandelier soda straw formations hang from the ceiling. Underground water passageways connect the cave "lakes" with the ocean. These caves are truly spectacular and not to be missed.

Open from 9am-5pm daily, with the last tour at 4.30pm. We are located in Bailey's Bay, near the Swizzle Inn, accessible by bus from Hamilton or St. George's. 'Fiddlestix' gift shop has just that unique item for special someone or yourself! Enjoy drinks, coffee or light snack at the Café Olé.
