This is a very interesting tourist attraction and it is definitely worth taking a risk in your life. . . . It is full of adrenaline impulse, I really like the rich flora and fauna in this cave. It's great to see the bat sleeping upside down. It really enriches my knowledge here. During your arduous journey to the island, you will clearly see hundreds of bats hanging up and down on the trees beside the cave. This is a cool scene. The water here is very good. We are snorkeling nearby. There is no doubt that it is worth seeing here.
The bat cave is not far from Puka Beach. There are various cave bats, flying foxes, fruit bats, etc. in the cave. If you aspire to be a naturalist or cave explorer, you can hire a local guide to take you through jungle trails to find these caves. At sunset, groups of bats fly out of the cave to hunt for food. The scene can be said to be quite spectacular. But if you want to go to the bat cave to find out, you need to endure the strong smell in the cave. To get to the bat cave, you need to cross the jungle path and climb down the steep wall. Usually tourists will hire a local guide who knows the structure of the cave very well and it will be easier to follow along. Go down to the bottom of the cave and continue to go deep, and you will find dense bats hanging on the cave wall above your head. Because the light in the cave is dark, you need to use a flashlight to see the bats clearly
The bat cave is also a natural cave with a very dangerous environment. The deep location here is also very important. The number of bats is very large, and the temperature inside is quite similar. There are also many tourists visiting here.
There are more than 2.5 million bats living in this scenic spot. Every night at 6:30 in the evening, they fly out in groups to find food. The scene is very dark and crushed. The main food of these bats is fruit. The reason why the durian output of Dabao is so good. More than half is due to the spread of pollination by these bats, so locals say that without bats, there would be no durian.
