Going Down in Timubo Cave

There are a some caves located in Camotes Island however due to time constraint we were only able to visit one cave which is Timubo Cave.

Unlike other cave, the entrance of the cave is not visible. Its entrance is not like an opening from a mountain. Timubo Cave is located in a farm. Since it is still considered as summer, the grass and the few trees near the cave entrance are all dried up.


The steps on the entrance of the cave are bit slippery but there are handrails that can help the tourists. The cave is also well-lighted so it is not that dark when you are inside however precaution is still necessary.


At the heart of the cave is the clear cold blue water. It is a wonder on how the water reaches the cave since it’s a bit far from the sea. It is approximately five to six feet deep but there are some elevated areas where the water is chest deep.


Since the cave is just small it is advisable that only few people are inside the cave. I think the locals guarding the cave also do not allow too many people to enter inside. Bringing of foods is not allowed inside. Smoking is also strictly prohibited.




We stayed for a while since my friend is enjoying the cold water. When we ascend the cave, there are already two groups preparing to enter the cave. 

We left the cave feeling refreshed and excited for our next destination.
