Book Direct with the Owner at Buchan Caves Reserve with Tourism Caloundra in Buchan, for all your Attraction and travel needs.
Near the township of Buchan, lies a honeycomb of caves full of spectacular limestone formations.
The caves were formed by underground rivers cutting through limestone rock. The formations are created by rain water seeping through cracks and dissolving some of the limestone. As each droplet comes through the roof it deposits calcite which crystallises in a small ring. In time, stalactites are formed on the roof of the cave, and stalagmites build up from droplets which fall to the floor.
Discover the beautiful calcite-rimmed pools of Royal Cave and the elaborate stalactites and stalagmites of Fairy Cave on a guided tour. Tours are conducted daily.
Buchan Caves is eco-certified and committed to sustainable practices and provides high quality nature-based tourism experiences.
