At the Mega Pier:

Upon arrival at the Mega Pier, you have the opportunity to grab a taxi, book a tour with a local Tour Operator or make your own way by public transportation.

  • Taxi: A certified taxi driver will gladly take you to the Hato Cave. Many also offer a custom-made private island tour, including a visit to the Hato Cave, so don’t be shy to ask. Please note, when choosing this option the entrance fee to the Hato Cave is not included.
  • Tour Operators: At the Mega Pier you will also find representatives of the various Tour Operators selling their packages. For more information and their specific tours to the Hato Cave, please let the representatives inform you of their available tours.

Here you can take the bus “Otrobanda-Hato”, which stops right in front of the Hato Cave. From the public bus station, buses leave every full hour. At the Hato Cave they stop approx. a quarter past the hour to head back to the public bus station in Otrobanda. Costs are around U$ 2,= one way.
