Cathedral Cave is one of the five caves in the Joyce's Dock group
situated in the grounds of the Grotto Bay Beach Resort in Hamilton
Parish. The hotel was built in the late 1960's. The dominant feature in
Cathedral Cave is the large, deep lake. This lake is used by guests of
the hotel as a weatherproof place to swim. Like the lakes in all of
Bermuda's other caves, the lake in Cathedral Cave is tidal and composed
of sea water migrating its way through fissures in the porous rock
surrounding the cave. Cathedral Cave is so close to Prospero's Cave that
these two caves are probably connected underwater.
