When everything was ready, we
embarked to the boat to go to Saint Paul National Park. It took 20min. When
arriving to the park, the guide brought us to see the star of Saint Paul
National Park "Monitor Lizard". After
that we had to wait for the queue entering Underground River, which had a lot
of tourists, most of them was Filipinos.

We waited for (again) rubber boat
at the pier on the mouth of the cave. The boat driver served as narrator
through the darkness into the huge cave with high ceiling containing
stalagmites and stalactites.
The boat driver narrated how the rocks are shaped like one. I remember them as young woman, cloud, corn, mushroom and Jesus Christ's face.
The distance the boat ran was around 1km, and then returned. In the cave is river there is no space to walk down. It is one reason some people feel that they were not close to nature as they should be.

Tip
Lunch time at Sabang beach takes long hours. Going for a walk, sun bathing, swimming and reading at the beach are probably the better activities than just hanging at restaurant.
