A backdrop of stalagmites and stalactites bulged from rocky corrugated walls. The whole vista makes you feel like you’ve moved closer to the Earth’s heart.
Thick ropes from the ragged walls enticed one to channel their inner Tarzan and fly through the air, swinging on the rope only to plunge and scour the bottomless watering hole.
It’s better to come prepared with extra towels, floaters, and water shoes with kids.
A waterproof case for your phone, an underwater camera, and swimming goggles will enrich your experience greatly.
