It's cool. Probably not as cool as larger caves but it is worth a visit. There is a bit of graffiti along with 1000 year old cave drawings. The rangers are nice and helpful.

While the signage is updated and all the manmade elements around the cave are well built and well-maintained, this cave won't knock your socks off. The storytelling associated with the history of the cave carries the narrative where size and depth fall short. It seems like you could just continue on to the more interesting and unique Quadirikiri Cave to the southeast, but we took a northern turn towards the other Arikok attractions.
I wouldn't go out of your way to notch this spot off your Aruban bucket list, but it's on the way to several Arikok National Park attractions and included on several tour loops, so you might as well check it out. It was a clutch reprieve from the intense summer sun, as the cool cave chilled us when even the whipping eastern winds couldn't.

I admit to being a little freaked out by the bats. We could hear them squeaking and saw one flying about twenty feet away. I would have been reluctant to enter if we hadn't been with a guide. I am glad I did. The cave markings were interesting and this is the first cave I have been in that felt warm and not cold.

The cave is small, but a very nice park ranger walked us around and showed us things. Unfortunately people have defaced much of the cave, but some ancient drawings are still there for viewing. There is a fish pond nearby that you can stick your feet into and the fish bible on your toes also.

Stunning cave with ancient drawings from over 1000 years ago. We also saw a giant centipede 😬 This was my favorite cave on the island! Minus the centipede. 😁
