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.

Very good cave to visit if you have spare time. We had a lovely tour guide by the name of Ava. She showed us the cave and all the artifacts inside of it. Would recommend visiting.

Spectacular place to visit, highly recommend.
I was very surprised by how much of the cave we were able to access and how long the tour went for, excellent value for money.
Our tour guide was so down to earth, friendly and informative. We walk away, having learnt so much about the history of the Cave and the area.
Greatly stocked gift shop and lovely little Cafe on site.
I'd recommend booking online before arriving, so many people were being turned away due to being booked out.

Visiting Jewel Cave was an incredible experience! The cave is absolutely breathtaking, and having Indigo as our guide made it even better. She was incredibly knowledgeable and kind, answering all our questions and sharing fascinating details about the cave’s formation and discovery.
A fantastic tour..thank you so much for a memorable visit!
