calintaan cave

Matnog, Sorsogon
Please like our Facebook Page:

Calintaan Cave is part of the Island Hopping Tour in Matnog. It was about 15 minutes to the west of Subic Beach via an outrigger boat and would usually come next after spending most of the day in Subic Beach. Upon reaching Calintaan Island, there was nothing special about the rock formation but as we got nearer the cave, the rock formation turned into something you don't usually see in other islands -- several small cave openings started showing up, waves slammed noisily into the rocks, lush green vegetation sprout from the cliffs, flat grassy terrains planted with tall palm trees stood out from above.

A few meters away from Calintaan Cave is Calitaan Beach, which was equally beautiful as Subic Beach. A stretch of pinkish sand surprises visitors as the outrigger boat makes its turn to the beach. There are no cottages in the area but guests are welcome to spend the day or stay the night with pitched tents. 

how to get to there:

Manila to Matnog by Bus:
There are several bus liners going straight to Matnog including Philtranco, Penafrancia, Raymund and Amihan. The trip takes 12-15 hours depending on the traffic. 

Manila to Legazpi City by Air:
Cebu Pacific Air and Philippine Airlines fly daily to Legazpi City from Manila. Legazpi City is about an hour travel by plane from the capital.

Legazpi City to Matnog: 
To get to Matnog from Legazpi City, ride a tricycle going to the bus terminal located near Gaisano Mall. Ride the bus bound for Sorsogon. From Sorsogon, ride the jeepney heading to Matnog and ask to be dropped off near the port.
