East of Auki is this haunting cave, with stalagmites, several large subterranean chambers and an underground river. Caveat: it's very slippery – wear sturdy walking shoes. From Auki, you can take a taxi (S$100 return) then walk the final stretch (about five minutes) down to the entrance. It's best to go with a guide.
