What you can expect
As you step into Jewel Cave, prepare to be captivated by a dazzling display of nature's most intricate and beautiful work. Jewel Cave is the largest show cave in Western Australia and is also home to one of the longest straw stalactites found in any tourist cave in Australia. Fully guided one-hour tours unveil the breathtaking magnitude of three immense chambers decorated with towering crystal creations, delicate stalactites, stalagmites, helictites, and beautifully coloured shawls that have taken thousands of years to form.
Hear stories of Jewel Caves discovery and now-extinct Tasmanian Tigers that fell into the cave and perished thousands of years ago. Your awe-inspiring crystal journey is perfectly complemented by the option of a self-guided karri forest walk through the towering forest giants, an excellent place to discover the region's unique wildflowers in winter and spring.

Great cave but the group was too large. Wouldn't do it again.
The cave itself was awesome, however the group had 34 people in it. Each platform they get you to stop at isn't very big and just felt like sardines. It was horrible and squished. You couldn't actually enjoy the experience. They move you from platform to platform so quick you don't really get to appreciate the cave and constantly have people in your way and can't take photos properly. I would never do this tour again.

This cave is massive and spectacular. The hour guided tour is excellent.
If you go to a cave in Margaret River, this is the one. The main cave chamber is massive. There are three chambers and inside you can see thousands of formations. One of the stalagmites is over 6 meters tall. You have to climb many steps and cut and weave to not hit your heat, but that is part of the charm. We also went to Lake Cave which is not as good as this one. Jewel Cave is a dry cave. If you want to see water inside go to Lake Cave.
