Apo Island Marine Reserve

Reviewed By Kelsydney

This was my 3rd and 4th trip to Apo Island, and it didn't let me or my fellow divers down. The diving as it has been before was just fantastic. The coral was even better than I remember, the huge school of Jacks following us on one of the dive was only bettered by the sea snakes that were hunting and were not worried about the 6 divers in the water. When you go there take some local money because when the local ladies come out to sell you shirts and wrap arounds you will kick yourself if you miss out. Just a great place to dive, and proves that when a marine reserve is in place it works.

Silliman University

Reviewed By profits101 - Cebu City, Philippines

The 100+ year history of this highly ranked, American-founded university is too complex and deep to cover here. The campus is a beautiful, green respite from he surrounding city and contains fine examples of Eastlake architecture, Art Deco, and Classic architecture - set in a mature, verdant Beaux-Arts style arrangement. Also, unlike many universities, its easy to access at the gates and visitors are not turned away. Worth reading a Wiki article on it that captures the founding in depth, WWII history, and even interesting events from he Marcos era. In the meantime, just enjoy the walk.

Pulangbato Falls

Reviewed By 82tedg - Adelaide, Australia

Less than a 30 minute drive from Dumaguete and whilst normally you can drive up a road with nice views this time the bridge over the small river from the main road was under repair and we ( 6 of us ) had to walk up the almost 1 kilometre of a quite steep road . Not a too difficult walk and definitely worth while .The 2 water falls , pools in which you can swim , and the cafe , bar , and other facilities were all very good . When the road re-opens there is parking , for a small fee .

A must to wake up early to enjoy the sandbar in the early morning and the rising of the sun. Then the dollhin watching will be after taking a picture of the 6km sandbar. You can also enjoy lunch while docking in the waters once the water rises. It is one of the best places to go to.

Lake Balanan

Reviewed By lawrence071489 - Cordova, Philippines

To start off if you want to go there i would recommend you to bring your own transportation as the travel would take an hour from Dumaguete City. Cons: 1.The road from the main road is bumpy and takes around 9km. Road is not yet fully developed. 2. Cannot swim in the Lake Pros: 1.Has restaurant 2.can stay overnight(no tv) with less signal 3. Price is just cheap with P50.00 entrace They actually have a swimming pool for P100.00 you can actually do a lot of things from hiking to eating at the floating cottage, camping and going to the falls. Once youll reach this place you would say that this is nature at its best and a hidden paradise. The long travel was worth it. We went to the falls by renting their boat at had the locals paddle for us. You just have to give a tip and in all fairness they give you information as well with regards to the lake. The place is so breath taking and you can actually go dipping at the falls. You dont actually need to be a nature lover to appreciate this place becuase the it only needs 15minutes going to the falls. The kayak cost around P150-200 which is not expensive at all.
