Kaurati's Caves

Kaurati's Caves is a cave system with natural rock formations located near Aguada Fort in northern Goa. The entrance displays layered stone patterns surrounded by vegetation.

The rock formations developed over millions of years through natural geological processes. They stand near the colonial-era Aguada Fort, making them part of Goa's ancient landscape.

Local stories have long centered on the rock formations here, shaping how people understand the landscape. You can sense this connection when walking through the cave entrance.

The walk from the lighthouse takes about 15 minutes along mountain paths with uneven terrain. Wear shoes with good grip, especially after rain when the paths become slippery.

On clear days, the Arabian Sea becomes visible from this spot, turning it into a natural vantage point for views. Few visitors expect to find such a seaward vista from a cave entrance tucked away from the coast.
