    Hinagdanan cave in bohol is a interesting cave. It has a clear, natural underground lake where you can swim. It's a brief but enjoyable visits.

    The place is clean, very beautiful beach.
    The place is good for activities with your family, work and other stuff. You will really enjoy because the water level is not shallow and the trashes are just minimal.

    Great place to go see. A little sand bar with a wooden sign. Go see get a photo. Nothing else to do here. A must do to say you have been for sure. We had 1 hour to spend here but only spent about 15mins.

    I was there in Alona Vida Beach resort for business. It is a lively place and I was an odd man out as it is a beach front hotel with a nice restaurant at the front having a love band playing. Alona is a small stretch of beautiful beach with lots of restaurants and beach front activities. Scuba diving, snorkeling, para salining activities are starting from the beach so have lots of people soliciting services. Evenings are livelier with restaurants, bars, massage parlours, springing to life.

    Most of the day was low tide so we had to walk far before we were able to swim. But the beach was nice and clean. There was a lot of sea urchin and starfish tho so watch out.

    This beach is gorgeous! However, it isn’t ideal for swimming due to the shallow water. This is away from the crowd and noise of Alona Beach so you will experience a quiet and relaxing stay.

    We stopped by here while staying at a resort on the island.
    We spent maybe an hour there and took a few photos (no flash)
    The Tarsiers are funny little things and I would be surprised if they could survive nowadays without protection.
    Worth a visit.
    I imagine that kids would love them.

    Timing is everything in this spot to have the low lying hills covered in clouds. A doable hike with peaks that aren't too tall. 25 pesos entrance fee.

    Called one afternoon and enjoyed the few sleeping tarsier seen.
    At one dollar entrance it's well worth an hour of your time...

    The view is great and the ambience is kinda chill. Adding of music background all over the place (mall) will make it much more vibrant and interesting for the tourist.

    While on scooters heading back to Alona Beach we stopped at this church. It is well worth a visit. They were decorating for a wedding but we still were allowed in to see. Very ornate for the location.
