Snorkeling with Whale Sharks for a lifetime memory! The encounter rate is 99%! Snorkeling with whale sharks in the wild is rare in the world, a precious activity that you must experience in Cebu.

One of the clearest islands in the Philippines. The contrast between the bright blue sea and white sandy beaches attracts many troutists. The sea of Sumilon is like a heavenly beauty, with colorful fish and shining coral reefs. The mysterious white sandbar, which appears only at low tide, depending on the weather, time of year and time of day, is one of the highlights of Sumilon Island. Although Sumilon is a desert island, its abundance of trees makes this place a resort island. The island is just 15 minutes away from Oslob by a traditional small boat called bunker boat.

After leaving Oslob, we drive about 3 hours to return to Cebu City. Arrival time is around 5:00 p.m. We drop you off at the pick up location.
