Enchanted Cave, Bolinao


There are three caves in Bolinao which are named the Enchanted Cave, Wonderful Cave and Cindy's Cave. We went there hoping we could visit and take a swim in each of the caves but when we went to Cindy's Cave, it is under construction that is why the cave is closed while it is still being renovated. We went to Cindy's Cave but the power is out in the town and it is pitch dark inside the cave that's why we were not allowed to swim by the caretaker. So our only option is at the Enchanted Cave which by chance also has the most expensive entrance fee among the three caves. How overpriced are they? Well, there is a parking fee for vehicles depending on size, even motorbikes and tricycles, which is P20 and P50 for SUVs. As for the entrance, it is P70 per head and an additional P30 per head if you would swim inside the cave. You can compare that to Cindy's Cave fixed at P50 per head and at Wonderful Cave which is P40 per head and 70 per head if you'll go swimming.

Calinawan Cave - Tanay Rizal


This Calinawan Cave is my first caving experience so I'm kinda exited :) So after enjoying ourselves bathing in the cold waters of Daranak Falls, we decided to move on to our next side trip which is the Calinawan Cave not far away from the falls. We asked one of the caretakers of the falls to get us a guide going to the cave and to our surprise, our guide seems to be the daughter of the sari sari store owner in near our rented table. She told us that it will be P200 to guide us (we were four) from the falls to cave and back but we haggled it down to P100 for four people.
