Welcome to René’s World
René Boissevain is a man with a passion.
He has spent a lifetime travelling to every corner of the world to collect natural crystals and prehistoric fossils.
René built a man-made cave to share his extensive collection and his love of crystals with you.
A true testament to one man’s imagination and passion.
Touch, Engage, Experience
Just over an hour from Cairns on the Atherton Tablelands, take a journey through René’s man-made caves to discover natural crystals and prehistoric fossils.
Covering an area of 300 sq meters, the interactive displays allow you to touch and photograph over 600 crystals and fossils.
Suitable for small kids to big kids at heart, and not to forget your furry or feathered family members – everyone is welcome!
THE CRYSTAL CAVES WILL ROCK YOUR WORLD!
But wait, there’s more…
Once you have returned from your adventure inside the caves, it’s time to discover what else is in store.
Be the first to see inside 44 million year old volcanic bubble in our crack a geode experience.
Take a load off in our family room and let the kids fossick for some crystals in our sandpit and let their creativity run wild drawing on our giant blackboard or colour in.
For those in need of some retail therapy – our jewellery and gift store is for you, where you can shop for crystals, fossils, gemstones and mineral specimens.
It’s not what you think…
It may look like a regular storefront, but from the moment you step foot in the door, you will be blown away. You will not believe what one man has done to share his private collection of crystals from all over the world.
Allow René to take you on a journey.
Immerse yourself into adventure.
Open yourself to a little bit of imagination.
