What to do and see in Out Islands, Out Islands: The Best Caverns & Caves
The Out Islands are synonymous with sport, from the depths of the Gulf Stream that yield big game fish to the coral reefs just off shore that are catnip to scuba divers. Sailing, kayaking and beach-combing add action to lazy days in the sun, while resident pink flamingos and rare Bahama parrots color local hikes.

Really neat cave system that holds up to its name! Tons of spider webs everywhere but we actually didn’t run into a spider...thankfully. Our niece is 8 and really loved it. Worth taking kids on this little walk in the woods. Also not marked well, it is at the end of the trail which starts across from the church. You can see on Google satellite what I mean.

A cave so extensive, it hasn't all been mapped yet.

This was a great tour and Leonard is a fantastic guide. He has so many personal stories from throughout his life that are interesting and funny. You just can't get that kind of tour anyplace else. I thought I would be freaked out by the bats, but they were tiny and didn't bother us at all. The caves are beautiful and I am so intrigued by their use as a hurricane shelter. This is one of those tours that you need to do every time you visit LI!

This fantastic underwater cave was used in the filming of two James Bond movies and is a must-see for divers and snorkelers.

The best way to see Thunderball Grotto is if you stay at Staniel Cay Yacht Club which is very close by as you can then visit when the tour boats are not present. Very fun swim through and great snorkeling on the one side of the Grotto entry

Saw the sign on the way in and and were curious. After Preachers Cave (go!) and Devils Backbone, we decided to take the little detour. It's a short drive from the road and so worth it! If I were a bit younger, would have jumped in and climbed the rope back up. Alas, I am not. But it was so very tempting. The water is truly sapphire blue.

Full of bats, this mile-long cave is best visited with a local guide.

Sturdy shoes and GOOG lights a must. Might also want a hiking stick. Floor can be slippery. No charge; no guards; easy parking.
