Expect a very early start. This Cebu day trip packs three major sea encounters into one long outing: whale sharks in Oslob, the sardine run at Moalboal, and sea turtles near Panagsama Beach.

I especially like the private beach access and the way the crew turns the boat ride itself into part of the experience. Lunch, … Read more
