North point of island • 246-439-8797

        Description: ST. LUCY PARISH. The "animal flowers" in these famed caves are actually sea anemones. The cave interior is carpeted with these sea creatures, which include yellow anemones as well as a few of the rarer, small purple variety. When in the cave, be sure to look out toward the sea – the view of the surf breaking is spectacular. Shops (above ground) sell souvenirs and snacks.

Farley Hill

 • 246-422-3555
Distance: ~6787.835 km
        Description: ST. PETER PARISH. The skeletal remains of a mansion stand here, what's left of a residence constructed by a notable British resident in the 1800s. The mansion was used as a film location in 1965, but was largely destroyed by fire shortly thereafter. Today, most folks visit the park for the magnificent ocean views, or for January's Barbados Jazz Festival.

If you wish to view rock formations first-hand, you're invited to disembark at the Cascade Pool and in the Rotunda Room. A cafe and gift shop are on site.
