  • The Crystal Caves, Atherton, Queensland, Australia
    Situated in the Main street of Atherton, The Crystal Caves follows one man's passion for crystals and fossils from around the world. Equipt with a guide book and a headlamp, you will embark on this self guided tour into the cave. When you enter The Crystal Caves, you enter another world. The lighting is soft and focussed only on shiny sparkly crystals in every nook and cranny of the man-made cave. Your sense of direction becomes disoriented as you wind downwards into the cave. There are crawlspaces and challenges which you can accept or avoid depending on your agility and mindset. You can easily find a quiet corner to sit and contemplate what nature has created millions of years ago. You emerge approximately an hour later with a new appreciation for a science that you barely knew existed and a gratitude for one rockhound who was crazy enough to dedicate his life to show you this unknown world

Great experience, kids were amazed and super excited to find things throughout the caves and learn about the history and way the geodes are formed.

We just did the self guided tour and am so glad we did. I initially was not overly interested in seeing ‘rocks’ but it’s so well organised and just simply stunning and interesting. I walked away with a greater appreciation for crystals and rocks.

Aside from the amazing geology and lovely service, kids can touch, pick up and even sit on/in the crystals. This experience was real and interactive learning for my 9 year old. There were constant sequels of excitement from kids in the cave. It exceeded our expectations.
