The name Fingal’s Cave was given after a heroic character of a classic poem by 18th-century Scots poet-historian James Macpherson. The built of Fingal’s Cave comprises of hexagonally jointed basalt columns within a Paleocene lava flow. The structure of the columns of Fingals’s Cave resembles the Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland.

The structure of the Fingals’s Cave is formed due to the cooling of the solidified lava from the upper and lower surfaces eventually resulting in contraction and fracturing. When the whole structure cooled down the hexagonal columns were created at the end. The transitional effects of lava can be observed today in the Fingal’s Cave.
The interesting feature of the Fingal’s Cave is its acoustic nature. The size of the cave and the huge arched roof are perfect for the echo of the sound. The cave is often called with the Gaelic name, An Uaimh Bhinn, “the melodious cave” as it has an atmosphere of a natural cathedral.
