Lake Cave Tour in Margaret River

Tom was our guide on the tour. He was knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour. He was extremely good with names and kids. He made sure no one got left behind and re-explained to the tourists at the back once they got closer to the exhibits. Good job again, Tom! And all the best with the stairs haha!

If you’re visiting the Margaret River region, Lake Cave is an absolute must-see. Tucked away beneath towering karri trees, this cave offers one of the most surreal underground experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we descended the 350 stairs into what’s called the “sunken forest,” it felt like stepping into another world. The guided tour was about an hour long and incredibly informative. Our guide was passionate and engaging, explaining how the cave was formed over millions of years and pointing out fascinating features like the “Suspended Table”—a massive calcite formation that appears to float just above the mirror-still lake. That lake, by the way, is mesmerizing. It reflects the stalactites and rock formations above so perfectly that it’s almost disorienting. You truly feel like you’re in a natural cathedral of crystal and silence.

We took a road trip of more than three hours (one way) from Perth CBD to Margaret River and booked a visit to Lake Cave. The journey was long but absolutely worth it! This was our first time visiting a cave in Australia, and we were amazed by its beauty. The cave itself is stunning, with incredible formations and a peaceful underground lake that adds to the magical atmosphere. The guided tour was informative, nice and friendly making the experience even more enjoyable. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in the Margaret River nearby.

This is a great cave visit. It was so beautiful and we were so lucky to be able to witness the water level in the cave which happened 70+ years ago. The tour guide was great as she gave us a well explanation pertaining to the history of the cave!

very unique place of interest. glad that the weather was good when we on tour. do note the number of stairs to go down & return up was no joke. it was worth the effort to go down and got to witness the fabulous view. recommended to join.

Amazing view in the cave- the lake , shawls,straws and 'suspended table '. Everything is so close to us while walking in the cave. One of the most beautiful cave I had ever seen.

Inside the Lake Cave, there are beautiful crystal formations, and the professional tour guides are very friendly and explain everything in great detail. The most interesting part is the naturally formed limestone rocks that coincidentally resemble Australia's iconic kangaroo and emu. God certainly has a sense of humor – it's amazing that these are both unique to Australia!

Great staff, amazing view. Educated, clear explanations. It's a wonderful experience. highly recommend.

it was a nice experience to see the cave, the lush greens makes someone feels comfy. guide was professional

Enjoyed the scenery and tours. Guide provided insightful sharing on the cave. Lighted pathways, some low ceilings and lots of climbing stairs. Would recommend :)
