Probably the most reasonable happy hour prices. Our favorite is their mojito. It's buy one take one during happy hour for 200 PHP. Plus the staff are really welcoming and friendly.

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!!!

Doljo Beach

Reviewed By BalikpapanRain - Moscow, Russia

This was such a nice change up from the more touristy Alona Beach. Almost nobody was there, and you can walk out into the water and there are thousands of starfish everywhere. You have to be careful not to step on them! There are no tourist restaurants, and it is all Filipinos hanging out there. A ton of construction indicates that this area will also soon be taken over by large corporate interests. Get there while the gittin is good!

Isola di Francesco

Reviewed By 277Anngie - Dumaguete City, Philippines

What is formerly known as the Virgin Island with it's seedy reputation is now converted into a Holy Shrine. An exact opposite of the much crowded and touristy beaches of Panglao. Most of the cost to develop this place was donated so anyone can visit the place for free and enjoy it's facilities like the kayak and the boat shuttle. They even have a canteen where you can take a snack and drink for free also. You just need to give some donation. As little as 5 peso would do but more is much appreciated. The Shrine is planted with life size statues of Jesus and Saints and angels. Most come to pray, relax and meditate. Believers come to offer prayers for healing. Non believers are welcome too and enjoy the kayak or take a dip at the waters. Upon entrance, you will be met by a life size statue of the miraculous Padre Pio. As this is a Shrine, peace and soft talk is very much appreciated. Public display of affection and ogling is frowned upon here.

Great beach to spend time in, lots of restaurants and bars. There’s boats parked in front and you can negotiate day excursions with the owners
