Ive looking for a cave with no success could somebody help

Dig down. There are three cavern layers so it's extremely unlikely to miss all of them if you just drill to the core of the earth. If you still manage not to breach one, carve out some grids every 10 levels, or dig some exploratory shafts spaced across the map.

I've missed caverns surprisingly often using 2x2 stairwells!

For op, dig to the sides, treat it like http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2012:Exploratory_mining for hollows instead of ores

Though this assumes that you've not used advanced worldgen to set no cavern layers.

However, if you're looking for surface cave, I'm not sure how to do it. I believe there are an option to enable it on the worldmap, but I'm not sure where it is.

Advanced world gen can have it enabled. I don't know how to do it otherwise.
