Cebu: WhaleShark , Tumalog Falls, & Sardine Run Snorkeling

Cebu: WhaleShark , Tumalog Falls, & Sardine Run Snorkeling - Oslob whale sharks: memorable, but not truly private

A very early start buys you three big Cebu sights. This full-day trip links whale shark snorkeling in Oslob, Tumalog Falls, and the sardine run with sea turtles in Moalboal.

Cebu Moalboal: Kawasan Canyoneering Adventure with Lunch - The optional zipline and the walk to the canyon
