Indulge me with more posts about our Ilocos Norte trip last May 2018. I better finish them before this year ends or else it would be old news, much delayed as it is already by now. A vivid part of my blissful memory bank.
Our next stop was the Bantay Abot Caves located in Sitio Gaoa in the small town of Baloi. I believe it was a full 10 minutes drive from the Patapat Viaduct. Our driver dropped us off by the side of a road and told us to go down a steep flight of stairs.
Bantay Abot Cave is a not really a cave, it was more like a mountain rock formation which has a hole in the middle which was caused by an earthquake. So when it is high tide, the waves come splashing into the 'cave'.
The rocks, the waves from the deep blue sea and some green vegetation on top of the cave all combined for a formidable sight of nature. You can enter the cave and the view from the other side is equally stunning as the calm blue sea make its presence known in all its majesty.
Just be extra careful as those rocks leading to the cave are covered with moss so they tend to be slippery.
