Historical information

Crystal Cave was known to exist since 1860, but it was only in 1903 that a rude entrance was devised and some stairways installed. From 1931 when the State Gardens Board took control of Yanchep Park, the cave was completely overhauled including fitting electrical lights to the cave.
