The Hato Caves were amazing. It is hard to imagine miles and miles of caves in a mountain! The caves were formed when the mountain rested on the bottom of the sea. I can't imagine how runaway slaves were able to survive in the darkness of the caves.

Visited on tour of island. Nice caves to see, not easy steps to climb up before entering caves, for elderly or unfit. Cave chambers very hot, humid, so can make you a bit out of breath. They have fans rigged up inside to try to cool you down. Not much else on site to see.

Hato Caves are located very near the Hato airport. Exit the airport and make a LEFT. The caves will be on the right hand side (I would say perhaps a mile down the road). There is parking available (free) and a person who watches over the cars (but don't leave valuables inside). There is a small bar area for soft... More
