Crusoe Cave is a sea cave at Crown Point on Tobago, an island in Trinidad and Tobago. It is named after Robinson Crusoe, the main character in Daniel Defoe’s 1719 novel. In the story, Crusoe is shipwrecked on an island seen from Trinidad, and some people think that island was Tobago. The cave has been called Crusoe Cave since around 1890. It can be reached on foot and fills with water at high tide, so it’s best seen at low tide. The limestone has fossils. The land where the cave sits is privately owned, but visitors can usually enter for a small fee.
