Crystal Caves
This formation is actually 14-15 feet tall plus another 5 feet of water at least. Total about 20 feet deep before it drops to 50 feet deep at the edge. We were both confident that it just looked like 3 feet deep and that was how clear the water was! Yeah, it did sounded like we were idiots!
Fantasy Cave (both caves are about 1.6 million years old!) They are still "active" caves and you can hear the dripping of the water drops quite frequent especially at Crystal Cave and we both got kissed by the caves too! Chubbs however, got too carried away at one point where he allowed the limestone drips (cave kisses) to just obstruct his specs and trying hard to keep the drip on his face! haha. Its believed to bring us good luck! I wonder what else of luck he needs though.
We love the clarity of the water! Just can't say enough about it.
These are the chandelier formations found hanging from the top.
Another common type in Bermuda caves- popcorn formation.
Large collums. This is the largest one in Fantasy Caves I think and hence being named- the Emperor.
We love taking photos!! Everywhere!
Crystal Caves
They are so close to joining to each other, apparently it will take 100,000 years in order for this pair to join up together. Romantic? 
Check out the formation and the lake beneath the caves, the reflection is so real that I had initially thought the were two separate formation. Only to realise that they were just reflections off the crystal clear lake.
The crystal clear waters were so serene and calm. No fishes or underwater creatures live in here because there are no food, no living microorganism could live here. I was so tempted to dive in and have a swim myself when I saw how clear the water was! Upon discovering that it is not recommended for swimmers or any form of recreational activities due to the high amount of limestone content in these waters that could cause rash, I was so tempted to push Chubbs in haha. I did ask him if he would like to have a quick dive in but the water is freezing cold!
This is the floating walkway for the tourists in the Crystal Caves.
Weather forecasted was great and it was accurate too, we spent a couple of hours exploring the Crystal Cave and the Fantasy Cave. Both the caves were AMAZINGLY beautiful and we had an excellent time. We were both amazed by the clarity of both lakes in the caves and the formation of the caves were just too good! I was hesitating at first when we reached there upon discovering that the entrance fee for each cave costed USD 18. However, Chubbs insisted to go ahead with our original plans and I screamed ok let's go for Crystal Caves as it was a more popular choice. Being like all women, I changed my mind just before Chubbs got the tickets and said hey, let's do both caves instead, since it costed USD26 for both. Typically what happens when TWO chartered accountants meet, they all see and play with numbers. Haha. We said, oh yes, excellent choice. We did 2 tours. Economic decision apparently, but we were both glad we did it as we were smacked with the gorgeous view of the caves and the guided tours proved to be really helpful. Awesome weather to go on the bike too! Overall, it was a day well spent!
