Description

The Cayman Crystal Caves is the Cayman Islands’ newest nature tourist attraction. They are located inside a thick tropical forest in Old Man Bay, in Grand Cayman. Ready to explore them? Then follow us on a beautiful guided walking tour.

On this tour, we’ll take you to three different limestone caves: an open-ceiling cave, a roots cave, and a lake cave, and we’ll teach you all about their history. The Cayman Crystal Caves used to be underwater and, when the tides changed, Pirates would use them for hideouts and for shelter. Legend has it that there are still treasures hidden there. Over time, and with the filtering of rainwater, they were transformed into impressive and unique caves full of dazzling stalactite and stalagmite formations.

After exploring the caves, we’ll stroll around the forest that surrounds them to discover the unique flora and fauna of the place. We might spot strangler balsam trees, air plants, parrots, and bats.

This is the perfect trip to explore the magic of the Cayman Islands. Bring your whole family, your partner or friends and enjoy a fantastic half day.

We also offer other great experiences in the Cayman Islands, such as a hiking and rappel half-day in Cayman Brac and a hiking, climbing and rappelling adventure to Bluff Summit. Check them out and plan an adventure-filled vacation!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
