Places You’ll Visit
Cebu Island is renowned for its world-class snorkeling and diving, and nowhere is this more evident than in Moalboal — home to the breathtaking sardine run at Panagsama Beach, vibrant coral reefs, and wild sea turtles drifting through crystal-clear waters. With this tour, you will explore the very best of Moalboal’s marine life before venturing inland to experience the raw natural beauty of Kawasan Falls, one of Cebu’s most stunning destinations, where turquoise cascades carve through a dramatic canyon waiting to be explored. From there, head south for a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with whale sharks in Oslob, swimming alongside the ocean’s most majestic gentle giants in open water.
From Cebu, your journey continues to the mystical island of Siquijor, known for its untouched beaches, lush interior, and fascinating island folklore. This tour takes you beyond the shoreline to Apo Island, one of the Philippines’ most celebrated marine sanctuaries, where sea turtles, rich coral gardens, and extraordinary underwater biodiversity make every snorkel an unforgettable experience.
The final leg brings you to Panglao Island, Bohol, where powdery white sands and warm turquoise waters invite you to slow down and soak it all in. You will also discover Bohol’s most iconic landmark, the Chocolate Hills, a surreal landscape of over 1,200 perfectly shaped mounds unlike anything else in the world, alongside the endearing Philippine tarsier and a scenic cruise along the Loboc River.
