Ogtong Cave can be found in Ogtong Cave Resort. It is a small cave which extends to about fifty meters filled with freshwater. With its crystal clear aqua waters, it is definitely soothing for the intense warmth this summer. One must be a guest of Ogtong Cave Resort or its sister company, Sta. Fe Beach Club to swim in this beautiful wonder of Bantayan. The resort itself is the most luxurious in the island but for a hefty price, it’s definitely worth it once you get to swim in the mystical cave. Natural rocks surround the resort and it is lined with white sand and picture worthy scrim. Read More: https://wengwengwanders.com/tag/ogtong-cave/

Our second day in the island was tiring but fulfilling. We enjoyed the serenity of the Island as we visited two of the most famous beach resort in the island. But before travelling we visited the cave inside the resort. The Ogtong Cave, that explains the name of the resort, the cave was located few steps right beside the pool and it was situated under the restaurant. The water was as clear as a mirror and was as warm as that of the faucet. Though we didn’t spend too much time under the cave for we have a schedule to follow it was indeed one of the most remembered parts of that tour.

After lunch we had a short trip to Ogtong Cave which is located at Sta. Fe Beach Club (SFBC). Since we are not staying at SFBC, we had to pay an entrance fee of P 120/ person which allows one to use the swimming pool. It is a nice treat because it’s amazing how a cave with a body of water is existent in the middle of the resort. It could have been more exciting if guests can somehow explore the cave and discover how it connects to the sea or where else it leads to. Unfortunately, there isn’t much we can do but to take pictures at the entrance of the cave. Read More: https://vycris.wordpress.com/2011/05/03/discovering-the-beauty-of-bantayan-island/
