Thunderball Grotto
Thunderball Grotto is a water-filled limestone cave near Staniel Cay, lit through openings above. Snorkel only with suitable tide, sea conditions and local guidance.
The shafts of light give this cave its distinctive underwater character. Access and safety change with water level and current, so the timing matters as much as the destination. Treat it as a guided Exuma Cays activity near Staniel Cay.
