At first I thought that the underground pool on the island was simply beautiful, but when I actually got inside, I was amazed at how beautiful the cave was.

As soon as you enter you will see the stalactite and stalagmites that make it even more beautiful.

You can go right inside it and swim in the clear and cold water, but you have to wear a life jacket for your protection. After exploring the cave, you will also have lunch at the resort.

At the Basilisa View deck you can eat and take pictures with a beautiful view. You can feel the breeze while you eat and look at their beautiful flower garden. Most of the foods they sell are really Filipino foods but they are delicious.

After we ate, the van took us to where we were staying and will pick us up again early the next day, but it’s sad to say that I won’t be able to join our tour the next day.

I didn’t feel good last night after our day 1 tour, maybe because I was tired and wet so I caught a cold and my body hurt. I just rested and told the van that it would not pick me up because I had a fever.
