This is a sight to behold. My eyes so loved this place and included in Unesco's New 7 Wonders of Nature. This beach is just the starting point to go to the Underground River. You have to hike a good 10 minutes and then fall in line. They have a limited number of people they entertain due to weather conditions at times. We rode a boat to see the 4km long cave with uniquely designed limestone and rock formations and if you are lucky with free bat droppings. According to the boatman, the cave runs 8km but only half is allowed for public. They said the cave has a second floor where there are small waterfalls, a cave dome, and more river channels. We went there last summer of 2015.

It sounds really cool. We went on a boat tour of a cave before. It was fun, rather unique.

That sounds like an amazing place to visit. The bats must think so too.

We are lucky we did not get any. During the time we went there, most of the bats are sleeping

Cool. My grandmother, my mother and I went to a cave once. I can't remember what it was called. But they had glass boats where you could see fish in the cave.

I have been there ages ago. It was awesome inside the cave and of course the boat ride there going to the Underground river.
