Boholicious

I’ve never been to Boracay. Though I have repeatedly encountered and taken part in conversations about this place which is among the most popular spots in the Philippines, I still haven’t felt the urge to go there. Maybe, just for the mere fact that I’m not much of a party person. I very much enjoy sightseeing, attempting to be one with nature and being able to do many things at one time such as going to the beach and finding other means to enjoy the place aside from swimming and snorkeling.

That’s why since last year, I had dreamed of going to Bohol. Of course, Bohol’s beaches are breathtaking but aside from that, Bohol still offers tourists, both local and foreign, much more. The place has been popular ever since because of the well-known Chocolate Hills and the Philippine tarsier.

After more than a year, I finally got the chance to visit Bohol. And right now, I’m still awed at the splendor of the beach and the things that Bohol has in store for everyone. Until now, I have not yet got rid of the urge to go back and stay there for good. =)

A 30-45 minute boat ride from Panglao IslandFor those who wanted to explore Bohol’s other beaches aside from Panglao, try to go to Balicasag Island Resort. It’s owned and managed by the Philippine government. I’m sure you will definitely get a lot more when you stay at this resort because you’ll enjoy snorkeling. In fact, you don’t have to go too far just to see the beauty of marine life. Colorful schools of fish are just waiting to enthrall swimmers as they swim just near the shoreline.
