Before the cave exploration, you will be provided with a safety helmet, and a local guide will lead you through the site. Along the way, you’ll see bamboo forests, stalactites, stalagmites, crystal formations, corals, and fossils of marine animals such as turtles and groupers. Inside the cave, sunlight refracts through a hole and reflects onto the cave walls, creating a unique mirror effect—hence the name Batu Cermin or “Mirror Stone.”
After the cave visit, the journey continues to Bukit Cinta (Love Hill). While it may look like a typical hill, it is a favorite spot for couples and visitors to enjoy stunning sunrise and sunset views.
