Rubber canoes guide you along the river at this point and our knowledgeable guides will share their knowledge about this biodiverse place off the South China Sea. Admire the dome-shaped, cathedral-like caverns and witness the stalagmites that rise from the water. Together, they create an eerie atmosphere straight out of an Alfred Hitchcock movie. As you navigate down the river, do not be surprised by the echoing cries of bats that live inside these caves. Before returning to Puerto Princesa, enjoy a picnic lunch at a seaside resort in Sabang and relax a little more by the sea.
