EXCURSIONS
Whale Sharks – The Whale Shark experience is the most popular tour on the island and includes air-conditioned transportation with a driver, entrance fees, snorkeling equipment, and the services of a tour guide who will ensure safety in the water and take photos.
Waterfalls – Inambakan Falls (also known as the Secret Waterfall)
With five levels of adventure, Inambakan Falls is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Cebu. Rock climbing, jumping into natural pools, and swimming in the flowing waters all contribute to an unforgettable exploration experience. After all the adventure, the main attraction is a 30-meter waterfall that cascades into a turquoise-colored pool. And the hidden gem? A cave behind the waterfall, offering a unique view of it.
Tumalog Falls
With a curtain of water cascading over the rocks, Tumalog Falls is said to have been made for Instagram. The vibrant blue water at the base of the waterfall is shallow enough for swimming, and you can also explore the nearby cave for a different perspective. The picturesque jungle setting of Tumalog Falls will help you relax, cool off, and enjoy the scenery.
Snorkeling at the Moalboal Sardine Run includes air-conditioned transportation with a driver, entrance fees, equipment, and a guide. The tour departs from the resort after breakfast and returns in the afternoon. Snorkeling in the tropical waters of the ocean, surrounded by a school of over a million sardines, will be a unique experience. As you swim, the school of sardines opens up, changes shape, and reforms—seemingly having a life of its own. This natural phenomenon helps the small sardines avoid larger predators.
Cebu City – Exploring the vibrant culture of Cebu City offers a memorable experience, starting with the stunning Sirao Garden, where you can take photos amidst a sea of vibrant flowers and picturesque spots. You can admire the grandeur of the Temple of Leah, with its impressive architecture and stunning views of Cebu Island. You will also discover the historical significance of Fort San Pedro and visit Magellan’s Cross, where you can learn about the fascinating stories behind this landmark.
