Gasparee Caves


Gasper Grande Island also called Gasparee island is situated off the North Coast of Trinidad and it is one of seven small islands in that location.  The island is a short distance from Chaguaramas and is accessible by boat.  Gasparee Island is the home of the Gasparee Caves, which is situated approximately ten minutes walk up a slight incline on the northern side of the island and then about 100 feet down to the caves.

The Gasparee caves is made of natural natural limestone and has a beautiful turquoise coloured pool at the bottom. There are sinkholes and the cave is filled with stalactites and stalagmites. You can book a tour to visit this natural wonder through the Chaguaramas Development Authority.
