Jump from that platform to ground and then jump up the platforms to reach the stairs and exit the cave.

Once Simon lands, he will clunk. You need to wait for Simon to stand and then do 3 whips. The purpose of the whips is to lose 66 frames each whip is 22 frames. Whip while holding right, this will take some practice and while you can technically still make the moving platform by whipping once then taking a step, and doing this three times - it may be tough to catch the platform.
 
Immediately after the third whip you want to jump and whip the candle in front of you to get the big heart, jump and whip to the next platform to pick up the watch and jump onto the moving platform. If you are having issues making this platform check that you are not spamming the whip button at the 3 whip pause buffer (this requires decent whip rhythm) or not trying to jump to the moving platform too early.
 
Ride the moving platform, jump and whip the second candle to get another big heart, and jump to the next platform. Walk right and jump up and whip the second candle. You want to whip as you are falling down through the candle so that you do not collect the long whip upgrade. As you reach the ground jump up and activate the watch. The visual cue here is the fishman jumping up out of the water behind you. You want to activate the watch when you see the bottom of his feet right above the candle flame. There are two pixels that you have hit the set up correctly and you do not have to pause buffer to try and save the cave skip.
 
Pixel 1 - note the fishman's feet are right on the flames

Pixel 2 - note there is a single pixel between the bottom of his feet and the top of the flames

If you have done that correctly when you activate the watch there will not be a bat in front of you. Jump over the pit and jump up the platforms. As you jump to the highest platform walk to about the midpoint of the platform and activate the watch as the bat swoops down and the fishman pops up. You will whip the fishman and the candle, collect the holy water and be able to walk and jump out over the bat to damage boost into the rock platforms that normally only the fishmen are able to access.
 
Once you land on the first rock platform jump to second platform below that one. Then you can take a step and throw a holy water to hit the fishman that pops up to the fourth platform or you can jump whip the fishman (note video shows the jump whip).
 
Jump up from the fourth to the fifth platform (the highest one in the ceiling platforms) jump from the fifth to the sixth and the sixth to the eighth skipping the seventh lower platform. Pause there and wait for the moving platform to move below you, drop down, Simon will clunk - you have to wait till he comes out of that animation to jump to the next moving platform otherwise your input will get eaten. After jumping up whip the next candle to get a big heart, then throw a water at the next candle to get the long whip upgrade.
 
Jump from the moving platform to the next platform, as you jump from that platform to the next do a delayed water throw to hit the bat, then jump from the final platform to the ground. Jump up the elevated platforms to get to the stairs and exit the cave.
 
==== Cave Skip Saves ====
 
If you mess up the watch activation and you see the fishman's feet not on the right pixels you can save the cave skip.
 
NOTE: will expand this section further
 
Generally if you are early (the fishman is not above the candle fully) it is more difficult to save this but you pause buffer - I've (KCR experience results may vary lol) found that I pause and say to myself "crap" and sometimes I can save this, you'll only find out once you get to the top platform to do the second watch activation.
 
If you're late on the first activation (fishman's feet are more than the 2 pixels above the candle flame) then I find its a much quicker pause buffer.
 
All in all - the pause buffer is something that you have to get a feel for - you might as well attempt if you miss the set up.
