On scheduled visiting days, guests can watch HeroRATs demonstrate their detection skills in a safe training area and meet the animal handlers.

The cave walls are decorated with Buddhist shrines added in more recent centuries, creating a layered spiritual history spanning over 1,500 years. Dramatic stalactites and stalagmites frame the ancient temple, and natural light filtering through a crack in the cave roof creates an atmospheric glow.

The calm, shallow water makes it suitable for relaxed swimming, and fishing boats anchored just offshore add to the laid-back maritime character.
