OVERVIEW

Venture into Jamaica’s fascinating underground world on this guided exploration of the legendary Green Grotto Caves, a natural labyrinth rich in history and mystery. Enjoy a scenic drive along the island’s picturesque North Coast before arriving at the cave system, located near Discovery Bay. As you descend into the cool chambers, your guide will reveal stories of the caves’ many roles over the centuries — from ancient shelter for the Arawak and Taino peoples to a hideout for Spaniards and smugglers. Walk through impressive limestone formations of stalactites and stalagmites, learn about the nine species of bats that inhabit the cave, and descend 120 feet to a serene underground lake with crystal-clear waters.
