It is such a beautiful place to visit. You have to go and learn the history that actual Pirates used this cave. Unfortunately it was flooded and we could not go in. The rock formations around it are so beautiful to look at.

This is a fantastic place to visit. It is absolutely beautiful! I happen to know the history of the Cave In Rock cave dating back to the days of the river pirates, so a neat place to visit.

There is an opening in the ceiling so even the interior of the cave is slightly illuminated. Good idea to bring a flashlight or use your phone in any case. It's a really cool landmark and definitely worth a stop if visiting the area.…
