Masbate is a province filled not only with limitless potential for adventure, but it also offers a chance to experience history and ancient culture with a hint of mystery at the Underwater Cave in the town of Claveria.  

During high tide, it will take even an unskilled diver only a few seconds to enter the cave, as it is neck-deep during low tide. Inside the cave are well-sealed human caskets carved out of solid wood believed to be 500 years old.  They still contain human remains.
