Probably, we are at the stage of the post-pandemic this year of 2022, and hopefully until this virus vanishes as if nothing happened and so tourism industry will have its bloom once again.<\/p>\n

The 10th largest island \u2013 Bohol is considered a jam-packed as to tourism spots in the Philippines. Bohol Island is a source for various activities which include island hopping, river cruising, cliff diving, home of fish sanctuaries, beach bumming, sandbar, historical monuments, man-made forest and so on. Most tourists prefer to rent a single motorcycle just to circling around the island of Panglao in just a very fine day. For the mainland-Bohol, four-wheel is a must if you intend to drive from north to south. Biking is another way to go places nearby accommodation.<\/p>\n

No wonder how Bohol is a go-to place where most foreign neighbors are conspicuous in the island, not only Bohol can be travelled for a couple of days seeing the natural beauty of each corner but also of how Bohol has so much to offer.<\/p>\n

We have booked our accommodation in Panglao, a 15-minute walk towards Alona Beach. Thanks to Alona Bohol Backpacker<\/a>! What you expect in Panglao Island is a selection of restaurants combined by Asian, Italian, and American cuisine in the long-stretched of Alona Beach and along Tawala Circumferential Road where we stayed for three nights. Fast-food and convenience stores are also an option to choose from, and souvenir stores are also available alongside.<\/p>\n

You might be surprised that Panglao is where the International Airport located and not in the mainland in which Tagbilaran City is the capital of Bohol. All that matter when traveling to Bohol is that Panglao island can suffice your needs and wants from accommodation, night life bars, beach bum, stores and others.<\/p>\n

If you are looking for serene vibes, you can explore up north including Anda beach, some nearby islands like Pitogo, the Danao Adventure Park if you want a nerve-wracking experience including The Plunge, South Farm where you can feed some animals, plant some seedlings, fishing, and others, a good choice for a family with kids.<\/p>\n

  1. Come and see the Chocolate Hills<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The Chocolate Hills is the Philippines\u2019 third National Geological Monument and is UNESCO World Heritage site located in the municipality of Carmen. This iconic spot in Bohol is best to witness during the dry season or summer where wave of grass surfacing each hill look dried turning into brown like a gigantic hill of chocolate.<\/p>\n

    2. Experience and swim like no other \u2013 Whale Shark encounter<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Indeed, Bohol is also offering this one of a kind experience similar to Oslob in Cebu, Sorsogon and others. We are a group of four and took a cab from our accommodation in Panglao to Municipal of Lila for about an hour, the jump-off point and where the registration is taken care of. These species are well-known to be no harm and can be as huge as ordinary bus. Here are what you need to consider.<\/p>\n
