Dumaluan Beach

Reviewed By sydneysider48 - Sydney, Australia

Alona Beach is overdeveloped, touristy, busy and tacky. By contrast, Dumuluan Beach - a 10 minute tricycle ride away - is quite, unspoiled and beautiful, with lovely sand, gently shelving, and clean azure blue water. There are eating and drinking facilities along the beach as well as large resorts where day entry can be available depending on the occupancy levels.

Philippine Tarsier and Wildlife Sanctuary

The sanctuary a property of Philippine Tarsier Foundation which primary mission is to save the Philippine Tarsier, its habitat and other wildlife.

Reviewed By FamJensenNorway - Stavanger, Norway

A great facility in the Bohol forest taking care of a good number of Tarsiers. You get a quick and efficient presentation of the animal and a chance to observe then close up in their natural habitat. A very nice experience which we recommend when in Bohol.

Baclayon Church

One of the oldest stone churches in the Philippines.

Reviewed By Eightfiftyfive

We stopped by Baclayon Church - an old church founded by the Jesuits in the 1500s - on our way back to the seaport. PROS: The facade itself will take you back in time, and the interior will give you a sense of history and make you reflect on how deeply rooted the Spanish influence really is in the Philippines. WHAT TO EXPECT: The church is along the road on the way to the seaport. You might spend a lot of time looking up to marvel at the paintings on the ceiling. The church is open for all, but there is a museum on the second floor that you have to pay an entrance fee for. There are a lot of souvenir vendors around, mostly selling Bohol kalamay. (As a side note, the kalamay itself is delicious, but if you plan to take some home, put it in your check-in luggage, as the airport will not allow you to bring it in your carry-on baggage.)

Chocolate Hills Natural Monument

Reviewed By TheTraveller_247 - Siebnen, Switzerland

When you were in Bohol and you did not see the Chocolate Hills you were not really in Bohol. This product of nature really looks great and it’s not only a monument for Bohol also for the whole Philippines. At the Visitor-Center you have the chance to walk about 200 stairs, then you have a nice view from upstairs and there you can also see that they have many of this hills!

Bohol National Museum

Reviewed By JeffersonO346 - Tagbilaran City, Philippines

It is a combination of natural history and cultural museum. An entire section is dedicated to the rehabilitation of the old church buildings damaged during the earthquake. There are unique exhibits from excavations around the island yielding insights into Bohol's past. We went there before the opening of the upper gallery. I'd be interested to go see again to see what's new.

Danao Adventure Park

Reviewed By laurencedahab - Cebu City, Philippines

If you are sort of a daredevil then going to this place in Bohol is a must! Danao Adventure Park offers caving, zip-line, rappelling, kayaking and other high-adrenaline activities like my favorite, the plunge (a canyon swing adventure that calls for you to free fall for over 45 meters before being launched into a pendulum swing, 100 meters wide). Note: This ia not for the weak-hearted ones.

Virgin Island

Reviewed By havokmyx - Manila, Philippines

Good thing we skipped that rocky island and proceeded early at much earlier time at this island (sad we didnt see dolphins) and we enjoyed the crystal clear waters and the great white sand bar that we forgot the dolphins... even my son had a great time swimming and playing in the sand!!! Awesome island in the middle of the sea with such beautiful background all around!!!
