🕳️ Journey through the cracks and into the natural tunnel
Black Ghost Cave is a naturally formed cave system in the coral reef. The trails are narrow and winding, and some passages require you to bend over, making it perfect for travelers who enjoy a sense of primitive adventure. Upon exiting the cave, you'll be greeted by a breathtaking turquoise ocean view, like a movie transition.
📸 Photo Highlights:
