A pair of experienced cavers explore Captain Morgan's Cave at Morgan's Bluff, North Andros, Bahamas, on foot from a signed trailhead. The cave is formed in limestone karst typical of the Bahamian islands and features a semicircular entrance with tourist-built steps, two connected entrances, skylights that admit natural light, a low stoop passage requiring hands-and-knees crawling, and a colony of bats roosting in ceiling alcoves. The crew — narrator and first mate Gordon — wear helmets and carry primary and backup lights, applying standard caving safety practice.3:13 The cave loops back on itself; the stoop passage exits near the first entrance rather than opening into a separate chamber.2:57 Local tradition holds that Captain Morgan hid treasure here, but no historical evidence places him on Andros, though he sailed the area.0:17 No treasure was found.3:50 The cave is small, takes little time to traverse, and appears set up for occasional group tours.3:04 For visiting sailors with a caving background, the site is a short, accessible excursion from an Andros anchorage.3:42
