Indian Cave

Antigua & Barbuda


Barbuda is riddled with mysterious caves, some of which are so well hidden you'll need a guide to locate them. Not so with Indian Cave in the Two Foot Bay National Park on the northeastern coast. The three-chambered hole-in-the-ground features Arawak petroglyphs and a bat chamber. Look for the entrance atop a small bluff opposite a stone ruin.
