Closed in: None

Limestone Caves on Baratang Island are a primary tourist attraction in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India. These caves are a natural wonder, showcasing massive sedimentary limestone formations, some of which are still growing. The journey to these caves is an adventure in itself as it involves a combination of road travel, crossing creeks by ferry, and a short trek through tropical forests. The route is often flanked by tribal reserves and is renowned for its dense mangrove creeks, which are rich in biodiversity. Upon arrival, visitors are greeted by the sight of awe-inspiring intricate patterns and shapes formed by the stalactites and stalagmites within the caves. These geological formations are the result of years of erosion and continuous mineral deposits left by dripping water. The Limestone Caves are a hidden gem that offers a glimpse into the earth's geological history.
