Public Morning Flight Returns at Bracken Cave Preserve

  • When: Sunday, July 21, 2024,  5:30 am
  • Location: 7515 Bracken Cave Road San Antonio, TX 78266
  • Cost: $30

Bracken Cave is the summer home of more than 15 million Mexican free-tailed bats (Tadarida brasiliensis), making it the world's largest bat colony and one of the largest concentrations of mammals on earth. The emergence of these millions of bats, as they spiral out of the cave at dusk for their nightly insect hunt, is an unforgettable sight.

This is a morning return flight. Visitors can see the bats stream back into the cave, like a rustling river, as they bed down for the day.
