Step 1
<p>Your trip begins at Nilambur Jetty (Baratang Jetty), where you board a small speedboat to the limestone caves. The boat ride takes about 20 to 30 minutes and is one of the best parts of the trip, as you glide through narrow creeks where thick mangrove trees form green tunnels over the calm water. At the cave jetty, you cross a wooden walkway over the mangroves and walk about 1.2 to 1.5 km along a forest trail to reach the caves. Inside, you will see amazing limestone formations, with rock shapes hanging from the roof and growing from the floor, created naturally over millions of years. Spend about an hour exploring the caves with the local guide’s help. Then walk back to the jetty and board the same boat to Nilambur Jetty. The full trip takes about 2.5 to 3 hours.</p>
