About Sohoton Cove
The Sohoton Cave, a labyrinth-like place, consisting of limestone rocks and a Inlet, as a mountain lake, reachable only at low tide through a tunnel. Right in the middle is a series of rocks that are blessed with numerous caves. Crystal clear water, stalactites, bats, wild orchids and a climbing adventure await the adventurous visitor like you :).
Sohoton Cave is not the most impressive cave at Sohoton Natural Bridge NP, but it is a beautiful and well visited dripstone cave. Tours start at Basey pier, where a pump boat, tour guide, and light men are rented. The fee includes the boat rent, the guide, the light men, and the entrance fee. The boat brings visitors upstream to the cave entrance, which is a little uphill and reached after a short walk. In respect to the "spirits" that hover around the cave, permission to go inside is done by tapping or knocking the entrance sideways three times. The entrance is really impressive, a huge archlike portal. Behind the portal is a entrance hall with level floor, which is 20m wide and 50m long. Then follows the main chamber, a huge dome which is up to 50m high. At the far end of the chamber is a sort of window with a balcony overlooking the pool below.
Sohoton National Park offers excellent ways to experience nature at its best, away from the pollution and hassle of city living. Exploring Sohoton Cave is the definitely a must while in Bucas Grande. It is one of the highlights of my Bucas Grande Island Exploration. Going there is an adventure in itself and finding out what’s in there was an amazing experience.
