Emerald Cave Kayak Tour
1. Activity And Walkthrough
Group members put on their helmets and life jackets before clambering into the kayaks, and are seated in a large circle in the cave. Then, the guide launches them all into the Emerald Cave. The group floats down through underground passages for about fifty minutes where they see many different sights along the way. The guide takes them between several zones of caves, letting them see different formations, whooshing sounds from waterfalls, and smell overtones from the natural scents of the earth.
2. History And Highlights
The Emerald Cave formed over millions of years, beginning with the creation of a volcanic vent, and then being removed by a stream. The cave was created by the dissolving properties of water carrying away carbon dioxide from magma and limestone. Eventually, Emerald Cave became a popular tourist destination and is now seen as one of the top sites in the state. To this day you can still see several fossils that were left behind when the ground-water level was higher.
Emerald Cave Kayak Tour is a great activity for anyone who wants to explore the underground world of an emerald cave. This tour is especially suited for adventurous people who want to see a new part of Mother Nature's world. If you are interested in kayaking, exploring caves, or are just looking for an awesome activity, then this tour is definitely one thing you will want to do!
