Caves of Hams
Coves dels Hams
A cave named for its white hook-shaped stalactites, with light and live music performances over an underground lake and fewer crowds than the Caves of Drach.
The Caves of Hams lie outside the town of Porto Cristo, only about 2 km from the Caves of Drach. 'Hams' means 'fish hook' in Catalan, referring to the white, hook-shaped stalactites inside. The route is about 500 meters long and passes the underground lake 'Venice Sea,' where light and live music performances are held above the water, along with 3D projections showing cave-themed imagery. Admission is about 25 euros. Compared with the Caves of Drach, there are fewer visitors and shorter queues. If time is limited, you can choose one of the two cave systems.
