Camotes Island is full of unexpected twists and turns. This location is ideal for those who enjoy taking risks. I assumed that Camotes was solely known for its white sand beach, but little did I know that it also has several lovely caverns.
We were fortunate in that the hotel where we stayed is close to several tourist attractions.
Timubo Cave is around 5 minutes away from RC Hutspot Tourist Inn.
I can sense the thrill and enthusiasm to explore the cave for the first time as soon as I step inside. Before entering the cave you have to pay You have the option of asking for a tour guide or not. We decided against hiring a tour guide because 
Inside the cave, other tourists arrived first. The depth of the water is between 5 and 6 feet. For safety reasons, persons who are unable to swim might request a life jacket. Looking at the water and the altar inside, I was astounded. As for me, I always utter this expression (tabi-tabi po) since I have my conviction and respect for nature, and I did so in all of the caves we visited.
We stayed there for at least 30 minutes, just enjoying and splashing in the water. It's entertaining to look at the rock formations inside the cave. After spending some time waiting for our ride, there are some souvenir shops where you can buy some shirts and other mementos. There are also some street foods to enjoy, such as Kwek-Kwek, fish ball, squid balls even banana cue and they have coconut, which is very popular here.
We went to Heaven Cave after visiting Timubo Cave. This is the smallest cave we've visited, but it's my favorite. We paid a 60 PHP admission fee. When we arrived, one couple had arrived at the same time. It was high tide, and the water was about 4 to 5 feet deep. There is a place to put your belongings inside and a place to sit if you don't want to get in the water.
We had a tour guide this time because they recommended it, which was good for me. After all, she was able to take some nice photos while we were inside.
We must cross a hole, and because it is high tide, we must go underwater to reach a specific area where we can see beautiful rock formations. It takes about 5 seconds to cross over. Even though we have already demonstrated that they can stand on it and that it is not too deep, the other two tourists are hesitant to enter the water. They squandered the opportunity to immerse themselves in the water and enjoy every moment of it.
Although this cave is smaller than Timubo Cave, I loved swimming in it. It's rather obvious, and the fact that it's less crowded makes me feel better. Because we only have a limited amount of time, we must leave and proceed to our next location.
Stay tuned for the following two caverns we explored on our trip, and till next time, hivers!
