	The Summer Solstice is the moment where the Earth&#39;s tilt towards the sun is at is maximum. This event occurs twice a year - once in December/January in the Southern Hemisphere and once in June in the Northern Hemisphere.&nbsp;<br />
	<br />
	One of the most amazing places to experience The Summer Solstice Light Spectacle is in the Capricorn Caves, located in the north of Rockhampton which create a spectacular natural setting for the exceptional event.</p>
<p>
	This dazzling natural light display occurs due to a unique phenomenon. The alignment of the sun over the Tropic of Capricorn allows sunlight to penetrate the Caves of Capricorn, specifically the Belfry Cave via a 14 metre long shaft.</p>
<p>
	The effect is magical. The sunlight dances across the caves below, illuminating the walls through the darkness. The event is a popular time for both weddings and proposals.</p>
