January 2012, Middle Caicos, Turks and Caicos. Stalactites and stalagmites fill the damp and mysterious interior of the Conch Bar Caves on the Northern Coast of Middle Caicos. The largest caves in the entire Bahamian chain of island. Lucayan Indians occupied this area many centuries before they were exterminated by the Spanish. The caves have fresh water lakes with caverns meadering on for many miles.
