Harisson's Cave

Duration: approx. 2 ¾ hrs

Cost: US $49.00

 Harrison’s Cave is a magnificent natural phenomenon and is undoubtedly one of the most spectacular attractions is the entire Caribbean. Though created over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, Harrison’s Cave has only been accessible to the general public in recent times. As the driver pulls away in the electric tram, your guide will commence the commentary and you are on your way to a memorable experience - magnificent chambers, incredible stalactites and stalagmites, bubbling streams, tumbling cascades, plunging waterfalls and emerald pools. Throughout the nearly one mile long cave the walls glisten in the lights as the calcite laden water drips down from the roof. Passengers have the opportunity to disembark the tram at the lowest part of the cave.

The journey to the cave is along the picturesque west coast of the island, turning inland at Lascelles Hill, just past the Holetown monument, commemorating the site of the landing of the first settlers to the island in 1627.

The return trip from the cave is down scenic Shop Hill with a beautiful view of the south coast and the port, President Kennedy Drive and the recently refurbished and upgraded Pelican Village where some of the best local craft available on the island may be found.
