Crystal and Fantasy Caves
Crystal Caves
A limestone cave with a floating walkway over an underground lake, where the clear water reflects the hanging stalactites. It is Bermuda's most popular indoor attraction.
Crystal Caves were discovered in 1907 by two boys searching for a lost cricket ball. The underground lake connects to the sea and is about 17 meters deep. A floating walkway crosses the cave hall, where you can see the reflections of the white stalactites. Next door, Fantasy Caves has a denser cluster of formations. Both caves require a guided tour. Each cave costs about $35, and a combined ticket offers better value. Check the official website for current prices. The cave has many steps, and they are slippery. From Hamilton, take Bus 1, 3, 10 or 11, a trip of about 25 minutes.
