Discover more about Harrison's Cave Eco-Adventure Park

Harrison's Cave Eco-Adventure Park, located in the central uplands of Barbados, is a captivating natural wonder that has drawn visitors for centuries. The cave, first mentioned in 1795, remained largely unexplored until Jack Peeples rediscovered it in the early 1970s. Recognizing its potential, the Barbadian government developed it into a major tourist attraction, opening it to the public in 1981. The cave system stretches over 1.5 miles (2.3 kilometers) and is adorned with stunning limestone formations sculpted over millennia. Calcium-rich water seeps through the rock, creating stalactites and stalagmites, as well as crystal-clear streams and cascading waterfalls. The most popular way to explore Harrison's Cave is on a guided tram tour. These electric trams take visitors deep into the cave, stopping at various points of interest. Knowledgeable guides provide insights into the cave's geology, history, and ecosystem. The Great Hall, The Village, The Chapel, The Rotunda, and The Altar are a few of the notable stops. For those seeking adventure, Harrison's Cave Eco-Adventure Park offers activities beyond the tram tour. Visitors can experience the Monkey Zipline, or test their skills on the Gully Challenge Course. The park also features nature trails, a bird aviary, and the Mount Gay Rum Experience.
