The main attraction is the contrast between the bright planted surroundings and the shadowed water beneath the rock overhang. Viewing the grottoes from the paths gives a clear sense of this unusual setting without turning the stop into a cave expedition. Combine it with other west-coast visits rather than crossing the island for this alone.
What to look for
Water beneath the rock overhang
Fern-covered cave surroundings
Useful to know
Keep to the viewing paths; these cave pools are a sightseeing stop rather than a planned swimming session.
