Jewel Cave is the largest show cave in Western Australia, with three massive chambers of incredible beauty. This crystal-encrusted cave is the most recently opened of all the show caves in the Margaret River region.
Jewel Cave is an extremely well decorated cave, containing many beautiful examples of delicate helectites, cave coral, pendulites, a very large stalagmite called ‘The Karri Forest’, and beautiful examples of flowstone such as ‘The Frozen Waterfall’ and ‘the Organ-pipes’.
Fossilised remains of several Tasmanian Tigers or 'Thylacines' have been discovered within Jewel Cave's chambers, safely preserved more than 3000 years after the unusual marsupial became extinct on mainland Australia. There is a skeleton of a thylacine on display in the Jewel Cave centre.
A short walk trail meanders through the forest above the cave, passing the interesting 'original entrance' to the cave. Lunch or light refreshments are available at the Jewel Cave Cafe, complimented by views of the surrounding karri forest.

Absolutely spectacular experience! Took the Mrs down for her birthday weekend and went to the cave. It is completely breathtaking! The online photos don't do justice whatsoever! This is a must do ! Quite cheap and very good value for money. Teddy, our tour guide was absolutely awesome! Knows everything there is to know about the cave!!

The tour was absolutely amazing!. Upon entering you will be greeted with friendliness and humor by the staff. Our tour guide Scarlett was full of knowledge and humor. You can tell she just loves her job. The tour guide and other staff were realy great. A special thank you also to the lady behind the canteen counter. She was very nice and took a serious approach to allergens. We really enjoyed the caves, tour and food. A well deserved 5 stars and if I could give more there would definitely be more .

It was a great and unique experience entering a cave and just appreciating the history and natural inception of these stalagmite and stalactite formations, as well as the straws.
Just note the amount of stairs needed to be taken for those with health concerns. It was safe and completely well maintained, but some stairs might be a bit steep.

Great tour - the cave is breathtaking and the tour guides are both friendly and funny. We not only learned loads about the caves, but the guides also gave us tips on where to go to see whales (and we did!). Particular thanks to Kiara (hope this is the right spelling!) and Josh (we're on the lookout for a spud gun ;)) for making this such a lovely experience :)
