Harrison’s Cave

Harrison’s Cave

Harrison’s Cave was first mentioned in 1795, then forgotten for the next 200 years until it was rediscovered in 1976 by Danish speleologists. It opened to the public in 1981, allowing visitors to see some of the most stunning natural geological formations in Barbados, and is now the island’s number one tourist attraction.

The cave’s extraordinary features are the result of years of water erosion on limestone, forming graceful stalactites and stalagmites in a variety of unique shapes. In addition to these, visitors can also admire towering stone pillars formed over tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years. Guests can take a tram along a zigzag route to view the cave’s interior. Under colorful lighting, Harrison’s Cave comes alive with vibrant hues, making the stalactites, stalagmites, and pillars appear even more dazzling.
