Bat Cave, Saint Lucia

The cave formation extends along the western coastline of Saint Lucia, featuring natural rock formations shaped by centuries of water erosion.

Local fishermen have used this cave as a navigation point since the early colonial period when ships transported goods between Caribbean islands.

The cave holds meaning for local communities who incorporate stories of the site into traditional songs and maritime navigation knowledge.

Visitors can reach the cave through guided snorkeling tours departing from Soufrière, with tours operating during daylight hours throughout the year.

The cave entrance creates distinct echoes from waves, producing sounds that resonate across the surrounding waters during high tide.
