Like other reviewers have mentioned, Hinagdanan Cave is a great visit if you are staying in the Panglao Island area. The cave itself is fairly small, so if you've seen larger ones then you probably will not be impressed with this one. It was very dark and wet, so I wouldn't really recommend bringing very young children since they might... More

This was a great attraction during our Bohol tour but it was made even more enjoyable by our tour guide, Kuya JB. He had a lot of great stories to tell and he really made us laugh. I just felt a bit rushed with the tour and wish I was given more time to take pictures by myself (Kuya JB... More

We stayed in Panglao and Hinagdanan Cave is quite accessible so we decided to pass by. I have visited this long ago (1990s) and the cave still look the same, minus the guides and souvenir shops mushrooming in the vicinity. The entrance is quite cheap at 15pesos. We were greeted by the group of guides who were willing to accompany... More

The cave is just a few steps away from where we stayed, so it was very convenient for us. The cave itself was not so big and man was it dark. They should use bright yellow lights. The water was cold and dark and "mariit". I wouldn't dare take a dip. It was a nice experience though.

If not for our very witty tour guide, we might have been dissatisfied with the cave. The cave is pretty small with not so much rock formations inside, but the trip is sure fun when you explore it with your best buds.

This is a great site to see if you are limited on time. One problem with visiting Bohol is many sites are spread out and you can spend much time in transit (not traffic as that is limited to Tagbilaran city) Bohol roads outside of Tagbilaran are open and most vans drive around 130 Kph as a regular speed. For... More

you might expect this to be a huge cave, but it's not. and even if it's just small, you'd be amazed at the formations inside. aside from the stalactites, there is an underground pool where you could swim. according to the locals, the owner of the area wanted to develop the land, farming i guess, and when he dug up...

Must visit! It is just a small cave but my first time to visit one. Creepy to look at the lake inside. We had a funny guide, his name was JB, Justin Beiber for short, he said!

The cave trip was not really worth the visit. It was very small and not really too much to see. There is the option for swimming in the cave however we did not really want to do this. We were expecting something a little bigger.

Amazing, wonderful cave, you have to go down under the ground to see the cave. It's so exciting 'coz the ground that you walk is already the top of the cave and you will realize it when you're already under the ground. In the cave is so dark but when you're used with the dark, you will see that the... More
