Visit one of the spectacular caves in Java when you join this fun day tour! Located on the southeast side of Yogyakarta, Jomblang Cave is one of the popular destinations outside the city. Experts believe that this cave was formed when 50 meters wide land collapsed with its vegetation a thousand years ago. As a result, this ruined pit is a refuge for various species of ancient plants and insects. Before going down 60 to 80 meters down the cave, you will be given a briefing and equipment by professional instructors on site. Make sure you see a stunning pillar of light or "heaven's light" when exploring caves. After that, you will visit the beauty of Timang Beach that is untouched. Explore rock formations or walk along pristine white beaches while enjoying uninterrupted views of the sea. You will also make a short visit to the lobster hunting community on Pulau Panjang on the gondola and bridge ride.
