Visiting Harrison's Cave
Harrison's Cave is a limestone cave in the central uplands of Barbados (St. Thomas parish), toured by tram past streams, pools and stalactites. It sits inland, so every resort is a drive away; the west coast is closest.
- Welchman Hall Gully, a tropical forest ravine, is next door, so the two fit in one morning.
- Book the cave tour ahead in high season (December to April) and bring a light layer: it is cooler underground.
- Taxis and tour pickups run from every coast; island buses also stop nearby.
