About Ogtong Cave

Ogtong Cave is a unique natural attraction located within Ogtong Cave Resort in Santa Fe, Bantayan Island. This small cavern features a natural freshwater pool with stunning turquoise blue waters - a refreshing contrast to the salty ocean beaches that dominate the island. The cave extends about 20 meters inside, with visitors descending slightly slippery steps to reach the crystal-clear pool. The cave's interior maintains a cool temperature, making it a perfect escape from the midday tropical heat. Natural light filters through openings in the rock, creating an ethereal atmosphere that makes the turquoise water glow. The pool is shallow and safe enough for children, though adult supervision is recommended. The cave has been developed as part of the resort's amenities, with proper lighting and safety measures in place. While it's a privately-owned attraction, the resort welcomes day visitors who want to experience this natural wonder. The entrance fee includes access to the resort's other amenities including the beach area and swimming pool.
