A must-see for the tourists of Bolinao is the Enchanted Cave. It is a coral cave located in Barangay Patar featuring a fresh-water pool, an unusual thing for a coral cave to have. A wanderer can dip himself at the clear waters while exploring the natural beauty of the cave. After swimming and/or exploring the cave, tourists can roam around the area which has lush garden and cool nipa and bamboo cottages.
Here are photos I have taken of the place:
Stairs leading to the fresh-water pool.
The clear water of the pool with natural lights coming from the cave's crevices..
sorry for this unrelated post. but im just sending the good news that spurs made it to the western conference. they played a really good game leaving hornets far beyond winning.
I must admit that eventhough I have been to a number of caves I never dared to swim in one as I'm so paranoid that something/someone will pull my leg and drag me towards another dimension where the "enkanto" lives :) hehehe
Wow another gorgeous place you share with us through your wonderful pics! Also loved the shots in earlier post, gret sky, & cloud captures! And love the lighthouse! Have a great week! Cat
I have been there and the place was ok naman. It was an unusual place for me coz it's my first time and cave talaga siya. Super cold ng water but medyo hindi masyadong wide ang space. Enjoy pa rin naman.
Super love ko talaga ang Bolinao. Una, masaya mamalengke diyan kasi palengke talaga siya na nakalatag lang sa daan yung mga fresh gulays and fruits. Pangalawa, diyan ako last nakakita ng maraming-maraming fireflies. Pangatlo, love na love ko yung beaches diyan lalo na dun sa Rock Garden Resort. Saya mag-beach kahit maraming seaweeds na kakapit sa paa mo pag-ahon mo. Hay, I miss Bolinao!
Try mo rin puntahan yung Bolo-Yao na Island sa Hundred Islands. Di pa siya commercialized kaya masarap magmuni-muni dun. Bait pa ng mga locals! Yun nga lang nung last na punta namin, mahina pa ang signal ng phones.
53 took the journey:
wow. sarap siguro magswim jan...
mukang malamig!
enjoy lang palagi kuya=]
wow ganda ng view. hindi pa ako nakapasok sa kuweba. ang sarap siguro ng tubig.
i mean masarap maligo.
Di ko nabisita yan. Pano mom ko sabi "Wag! Hapon na!" hirap talaga kung kasama family hahaha.
Mukhang madaming tao. Next time pagbalik ko dyan lilibutin ko lahat ng cave dyan. Nice takes!
wow! taking a dive in a cave might be on my wishlist of doing things before i die.
i love swimming on natural clear and clean waters.
And how is the water? Cold, freezing, enjoyable, pleasant?
ang sarap namang mag swimming!
kakainggit!

@ my-so-called-quest - malamig talaga, di nga ako naligo eh, nagbasa lang ako hanggang tuhod.
@ redlan - masarap maligo kasi mainit panahon. kaso kaka swimming ko lang sa beach kaya di ako masyado nagbabad sa pool.
@ ferdz - meron pa isa cave yung cindy's cave kaya lang di ko napuntahan kasi mahaba pa biyahe ko pabalik. kailan ka balik? pasama naman.
@ the dong - wag naman "before you die", sana mas sooner (yung caving ha) para mas masaya.
yeah, spurs and lakers in western finals. maganda yun.
@ quinttarantino - cold and enjoyable.
@ coldman - naalala ko tuloy yung rak en rol na kanta... tayo nang mag swimmeng, sa balong malalem... kaya alng ito kweba.
