About the activity

Jewel Cave stands as the largest show cave in Western Australia, notable for housing one of the longest straw stalactites discovered in any Australian tourist cave. Guided tours reveal the impressive scale of three vast chambers adorned with towering crystal formations, delicate stalactites, stalagmites, helictites, and beautifully colored shawls that have formed over millennia. You'll hear accounts of the extinct Tasmanian Tigers that once fell into the cave and perished. Enhance your awe-inspiring crystal journey with an optional self-guided walk through the majestic karri forest. This area is ideal for spotting the region's unique wildflowers during winter and spring.

Jewel Cave
Experience a fully-guided tour showcasing the breathtaking magnitude of Jewel Cave. Witness towering crystal formations, some taking thousands of years to develop, and intricate decorations suspended from the ceiling like vines and delicate cobwebs. From stalagmites and flowstone to shawls, helictites, and even 'cave coral,' this tour highlights an incredible diversity of speleothems. Discover the 'natural entrance,' the original access point for explorers in the 1950s, and appreciate the immense challenge they faced in opening this spectacular cave to the public. You will also learn the stories of the extinct 'Tasmanian Tigers' that met a somber fate within the cave. Conclude your tour with an optional self-guided 'Karri Walk' through the towering forest giants, offering a chance to view the 'natural entrance' from above. The Jewel Cave Centre features an interpretive area, retail shop, and café facilities.

As repeated many others, the Jewel Cave is sure to impress. We had an awesome guide who expertly shared facts and humor to make the tour fully enjoyable. An excellent combination of natural wonder that has been enhanced by subtle but magical lighting. Reasonably priced and well worth driving to and enjoying.

Spectacular Jewel cave
SimoneD1005, September 2026
Exploring the area and decided to have a look at Jewel Cave. Absolutely loved the tour. We arrived with no booking and were able to join the next tour leaving in half an hour. The tour guide was very nice and knowledgeable. The tour took an hour. The cave was spectacular and definitely worth a trip specifically to see it. You are taking approximately 500 steps on steep staircases both down and up on the tour, so be prepared.
