What To Expect
Jewel Cave
Fully-guided tours showcase the breathtaking magnitude of Jewel Cave. You will see towering crystal creations that have taken thousands of years to form, and intricate decorations stretching and suspended across the ceiling, like vines and dancing cobwebs. From stalagmites to flowstone, shawls, helictites and even ‘cave coral’; this cave tour reveals the most amazing variety of cave formations or ‘speleothems’. Once you see the ‘natural entrance’ to this cave, the means of entry for the intrepid cave explorers of the 1950’s, you will appreciate the incredible task they faced in opening up this spectacular cave to the public. You'll also hear stories of the now-extinct ‘Tasmanian Tigers’ that fell into the cave and met a dark and lonely fate. At the end of your tour, your awe-inspiring crystal journey is perfectly complemented with the option of the self-guided ‘Karri Walk’ through the towering forest giants, and viewing the ‘natural entrance’ from above the cave. The Jewel Cave Centre is complete with interpretive area, retail and café facilities.

5.00Riley was our guide his explanations of the cave and its history were great he was very informative but occasionally interjected with a little humour. The experience when the lights were turned out was formidable something to remember. The whole visit was well worth it and Riley made it even more memorable. Would highly recommend it.
Great experience but exhausted at the same time

5.00This is an amazing experience and the guide was very knowledgeable and very informative and enthusiastic about her job. This is the best cave I have ever visited and in my opinion once you’ve visited this cave a lot of the others fade into significance.
Great caves and excellent guide

5.00We really enjoyed our tour of these caves. The guide was excellent and very informative. Among the fascinating insights was that tree roots from above stretch 60 m through the ground to appear within the caves. They are definitely worth a visit.

5.00Jewel Cave was absolutely stunning! The formations inside are incredible and much bigger than I expected. Our guide was friendly and explained everything really well. The cave is cool inside, so bring a jacket and wear comfy shoes. The tour was easy to follow and great for all ages. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the Margaret River or Augusta area!
