When Filipinos think of Southeast Asian vacation spots, Thailand is often at the top of their list. Many Filipinos choose Thailand as a must-see destination because of its bustling nightlife, diverse cuisine, beautiful landscape, and thriving entertainment industry.
A whole day is definitely recommended if you plan to do a Siargao Island Hopping tour in the Philippines. Aside from enjoying surfing, food, beach and scenery around the main tourist hub, General Luna, doing the Siargao Island Hopping tour will complete your trip to fully immerse your self in the place.
Half an hour away from Aguinid Falls, we arrived a few minutes before the next boat leaves the main Island, Blue Water Sumilon Island Resort is a 24-hectare coral island, located on the southern eastern tip of Cebu and is in close proximity to Dumaguete. It is the first marine protected area in the Philippines and was made a fish sanctuary in 1974 under the guidance of Suliman University Marine Reserve. I heard about it from friends who lives in Cebu and also read some blogs about their trip to Sumilon Island making me want to really include this in my lists. A lot of tourist (mostly foreign) visits at the place for a relaxing overnight stay, but for the backpackers like me, a whole day exploration I think would be enough.
I’ve been longing to travel solo and it did come true just recently, my destination – Oslob, Cebu! After hearing a lot of stories and viewing so many photos about Oslob, I finally decided that I want to visit the place. The first thing that actually caught my attention to this wonderful place in the south of Cebu is the whale watching activity. Those gentle giants that I’ve only got to see on photos and videos are now coming into reality.
