You can use the clipping planes when you want to explore the core of your=20
protein (shift+right-button, move mouse up/down).
Another way is to select your ligand inside your cavity, then select around
(menu A -> around -> 6 A for your ligand selection) and then select S->=20
surface.

I publish today a pre-release of a PyMOL tutorial in french :

You can take a look !
