Amazing caves, with old paintings on the walls. Is worth going, inside there is a nice lagoon and you can swim. A little scary though as there is not much light inside.

Small cave on the premises od Panglao Island Nature Resort. Water pool not ideal for swimming. Nothing spectacular.

This cave is a natural grotto with a brackish water pond inside. We were offered the opportunity to swim however with the large amount of birds and their related droppings floating on the surface we opted not to. There were a lot of souvenir shops around the cave but they did have much more reasonable prices as compared to the... More

The cave was well maintained, you have to pay Php 15.00 for entrance fee, the fee already include the tour guide. Nice to swim during day time, but not recommended for kids as the waters are deep. Rock formation are those like in Palawan. The cave has a very steep walkway and stairs, too bad our grandmother wasn't able to... More

It is only one big room which is extremely dark. Don't bother. Complete waste of time.

I liked the cave and the geological structures in it. It's also possible to swim inside the lake in the cave. You can see swallows/swiftlets inside it. I didn't like the many, many souvenir shops surrounding the cave so much.

Go there if you have never seen a cave. If you have seen one, this one is likely going to smaller and less attractive than the one(s) you have seen. Go check out the shell museum, the 3 ft tall man in the stroller and Phillippe Tarsier (botanical garden with a little zoo and museum and cafe) instead. You can... More
