Crystal Caves

  • July 2, 2006
  • Rated 4 of 5 by foodallergy from Raleigh, North Carolina
Imagine being a young boy playing ball, and your precious ball falls into a hole. As young boys do, you decide to climb into the hole and find it for yourself. Well, that's exactly what two boys did in 1905, and they found more than they could have imagined: they found a national treasure!

Underneath the beautiful Bermuda soil lies another lesser known secret: Crystal Caves. Full of stalactites and stalagmites, this breathtaking underground tunnel also features an incredible hidden pond. With professional lighting and a (very funny) tour guide, you'll be taken away.

The tour of Crystal Caves is a wonderful tour, but a bit pricey. When you're done, you're invited to pay again to see the next cavern, Fantasy Caves, but I'd recommend just one. After your tour, enjoy a small snack at the outdoor cafe, or indulge in a small trinket to take home to the family.

All in all, it's a wonderful way to spend a hot afternoon, and a great memory to take home with you. I had a wonderful time.

The Crystal Caves of Bermuda

There are two caves, and each cave has some unique features. They are well lit, and the lighting shows off the wonderful formations. You see stalactites, stalagmites, soda straws, and helectite formations. Crystal Cave has a 55-foot-deep, azure-blue underground lake. Floating pontoon walkways take you through this cave as the water level changes with the tide. There are some stalagmites underwater, as they formed before the cave flooded. It is beautiful.

Fantasy Cave has rare chandelier clusters of soda straw formations. There are also fossilized tree roots and shells. Deep pools of water are in various places around this cave. Calcite deposits on the walls look like frozen waterfalls.

These caves are warmer than most caves because of the warm ocean water that flows into them.
