BUSAY CAVE & SPRING – Moalboal, Cebu

When I first saw this cave, I was astonished by the spring within the cave entrance. I really thought that was just it, i.e. spring in the cave and nothing else. However, there is a hidden beauty lurking in the dark beyond the rock wall of the spring.

Cold Spring

I was enjoying swimming in an icy-cold spring, I can tell that the spring in this cave is one of the coldest springs in Cebu.

There are small freshwater fish in the spring. Locally, they call it “Rainbow”, a type of guppy fish.

The spring depth is only around 4 to 5 feet.

Cave

A local guide assigned in the area approached me and asked whether if I want to go deep inside the cave as there is a wide space inside with an amazing stalactite formation. Since I didn’t know this information ahead and I’m not prepared for it, I took a moment for me to decide.

Then, I’ve decided to go deep inside the cave. Inside the cave, you will walk in a rocky path along with very shallow river flowing. It was my first time seeing such an amazing huge and multiple stalactite formations.

You will also encounter some bats living in the cave.

Also, you will notice that there are metal water pipes and concrete water reservoir tank inside the cave. These are used to supply water to the community.

The cave length is around 150 meters distance from cave entrance (spring) to the cave end (water reservoir tank).
