Most caves are found in areas with limestone bedrock, as it is easily dissolved by water, creating caves through a process called karst topography. These areas include regions like Kentucky in the United States, parts of China, and the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico.

Solution caves form from the dissolution of soluble rocks like limestone; lava caves are created by flowing lava; sea caves are carved by the action of waves on coastal cliffs; glacier caves form within glaciers due to melting and refreezing processes; and talus caves are formed by fallen rocks creating cave-like structures.
