About this site
Pawod Cave lies along the Mactan coast off Cebu in the Visayas, a stretch of shoreline where local dive operators run small boats out to sites named for nearby landmarks. It reaches a maximum depth of around 5 metres, making it a shallow dive suited to those wanting an easy, unhurried look at the cave feature rather than a deep excursion.
