Ephraim briefed me on the headgear flashlight and we talked about bats and stallactites before setting out. We visited 3 separate caves and each one was unique and exciting. Ephraim was enthusiastic and answered my unending questions about each cave as well as the island in general. Though in less than perfect shape, Ephraim showed me how to ascend and descend into each cavern. It wasn't too hard and finding the unbelievably clear, fresh pool at the bottom of the last cave was great! Thank you,…”
