Experience one of Belize's secret natural wonders - Crystal Cave. See a frozen waterfall, a sparkling stone dam, ancient Mayan relics, and more.

Your English-speaking caving guide will meet you at your Belize City tender terminal and take you on a panoramic 60-minute ride through the lush countryside of Belize.

On arrival at the base camp near Crystal Cave, your experienced guide will provide you with the spelunking and tubing equipment - life vest, helmet, headlamp, and tube - as well as a short safety briefing and how to get the most out of your excursion. Note that the tubing portion is slow-paced, not rapid-moving water.

You will start with a brief hike to one of Crystal Cave's entrances. You will soon see where this amazing cave gets its name! As you calmly float into the first chamber, you will turn on your headlamp and look up and see high ceilings and stalactite-lined walls illuminated in your light. For a split second, you may think you are in a cathedral instead of a river-fed cave. As you continue through the cavern, you will pass enormous boulders rising up from the riverbed.

You will arrive at a small waterfall, where your guide will help you cross over into another chamber, the Crystal Chamber. Wonder at the breathtaking crystal-encrusted cave formations and discover the beautiful "frozen waterfall". Have your waterproof camera ready at all times!

Then enjoy your continued cave tubing through the underground lagoon featuring a tiny waterfall where the caves open up to daylight.

At the end of this unique crystal cave exploration and tubing in Belize, your shore excursion guide will take you back to your Belize City cruise tender terminal.
