Conch Bar Caves

It was difficult to figure out the hours, and we were unable to make contact with anyone via phone, so we drove over and hoped for the best. There were two employees: one to handle prep and the other to give the tour. The guide gave us each a handheld flashlight and had us follow him into the cave. There are bats, guano, cockroaches (that eat the guano), and spiders (that eat the cockroaches) in the cave. The floor is slick and smooth in places; I’d recommend sturdy footwear. There is no wind in the cave; the air is hot and stale. That said, the cave was awesome!! The bats were very active, and we could see and hear them flitting around and roosting. We saw a crab scuttle across the floor and some shellfish in a still pool. The tour guide was chatty and knowledgeable. Great experience!

It's a pretty good cave system. But I didn't feel like it was worth $30pp for a half-hour walk. Also, they don't take any card.. so if you plan to do this, make sure you have enough cash for your group.

It was nice, and the tour guide shared a lot of the history of the place with us. It's a shame that people go there and carve their names in the rocks, but aside from that, it was a cool experience.

We decided to go, walked into the building, and were able to immediately start our tour. I think there was only 1 guide, so we might’ve gotten lucky with timing and it might be a good idea to call and see if you can set up a time in advance. The whole tour was 30-45 minutes, very interesting and learned about the caves as well as some history of the area. You can definitely see some bats if you’re interested, but if you’re afraid of them, they’re not everywhere and you would need to look to find them.

We drove to Conch Bar Caves during a day trip to North and Middle Caicos. After reading reviews that they can close early and charge $30 cash per person (vs. $20 as advertised), we came prepared by arriving in the morning, a little before 10am, and with extra cash. Sure enough it is $30 per person. We were the only ones who arrived at that time though and quickly got a wonderful private tour! The cave was larger than we expected, and our guide shared a lot of history. We saw bats and bugs, and enjoyed about a 45 minute tour!

Low-key and interesting! The guides were very informative and pointed out some neat sites. The caves aren't huge by any means, but if you don't go in expecting much, you will enjoy the tour. Plus, the bats were really neat!

A neat place to visit if you make it to Middle Caicos. There's no fanfare or gift shop. Wear good tennis shoes, it can be slippery. You're given a flashlight & you walk through the caves. It's worth doing, it's just very basic.

Very much worth a trip to middle Caicos to see the cave - it was awesome! Got to see lots of bats and learned some history from our tour guide. Gorgeous 🏝️🦎
