travel: Travel deals in Cebu

Dear traveler,

If you are looking for a place to travel, try Sumilon Bluewaters Resort which is an island across Oslob, Cebu. Bluntly speaking, the price speaks for itself; Php2,000 per head ($45) for the day use and another $90 if you wish to stay overnight.

Here are some freebies part of this:

Free snorkeling & life jacket.
Lunch buffet (No regrets on this, I promise you).
Free kayak service
Fresh water for bathing
Many more

This blog post discusses our way to Sumilon Island, Oslob, Cebu. I will be writing another post filled with photos to energize your eyes and your captivation.

This is a 2-3 hour ride from the city. It's worth the ride knowing that local celebrities spend their time in this class A resort like Enrique Gil (also a Cebuano) and his co-stars; when I say class A, that means it has a hefty price tag attached to it.

Cebu has other A-list destinations (and things-to-do) such as:

Canyoneering in Alegria
Kawasan Falls in Badian
Visiting Simala Church
Climbing Osmena Peak in Dalaguete, Cebu.

But if you want the scent and taste of Vitamin Sea, then Sumilon can be a one-time big time summer escapade for you and your friends.

I have a screenshot for you below for this distance.

Commuting to Sumilon

A. Ride the bus. This will be in the South Bus Terminal. Take note, South and not North Bus (buses here are for Bantayan, etc.) And just be extra careful with your things.

B. Hire a van. There are tons of rent-a-car companies by which you pay around Php2,000 to Php4,000 ($45 to $90). Contact them beforehand to avoid any delusions.

C. Ride your friend's car. The entire travel will be one long travel where you'll have to be at your best disposition just in case you have motion sickness issues. Before I forget, I have a video at my IG account (follow me at eldeee143) where I took a video while traveling in Oslob. The video shows the breath-taking coastlines and clean pavements.

Once in the location, you will find these photos below for better guidance. This reception area would be near the whale shark zone (Whale Shark Watching) so don't worry if you get a bit lost or so. The reception is a spacious place where you can park your cars. You can see various amenities for picture taking, too. The friendly staff will tag your name for registration and for payment.

You can see from afar Sumilon Island from their reception area. Before I forget, the boat has various schedules by which I have forgotten to take note. Plan your travel because you might end up waiting for nothing; either in the reception or in the island.

We've also managed to take photos while waiting (obviously).

This shouldn't be a waste of time. You can wear your rush guard paired with underwater perks. Pack up your things and make sure they are safe and sound inside your bags or in your vehicles. There will be some few reminders before docking so listen carefully because most of these are about the locations in the island and time schedules.

The boat travel came right after where everybody wore the life jackets.

We didn't waste time and immediately went on to take photos of the island and ourselves. We bathed under the scorching heat of the sun and took advantage of the perks.
