One of the most magical places under earth is hidden deep underground. The Crystal Caves of Abaco Bahamas have left me almost breathless since the first time I got to see them in 2011. I’ve been for several documentaries but never on my own to shoot these stunning caves for fun. Anyone who’s dived with Brian Kakuk knows how he strives to protect this fragile environment and for good reason. The delicate crystals in places can never be replaced if broken. Following him is almost as mesmerizing as the cave. Watching him effortlessly glide through narrow passageways and twist and turn around fragile decorations is both incredible and terrifying knowing I have a camera and have to do the same maneuver behind him. The water is gin clear it’s like flying through air in a maze of tunnels. I had such fun with Brian and Rick Witter diving this trip. The video clips are in no order. They were mostly unplanned and just trying to capture a few shots that will never do the cave justice because when you see it in person it can bring tears to your eyes. Mother nature outdid herself here. The shades of red, orange, yellow and pink from the Saharan dust inside the crystals, crystal pools, crystal roses, frozen rain, 12,000 year old bat skeletons entombed in the crystal, ribbons that are almost translucent and so much more. I can’t wait to return but until then enjoy just a small teaser from both Dans and Ralphs Caves in Abaco.
