Oslob Whale Shark Watching Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Whale Shark Encounter in Oslob
Another popular attraction in the southernmost part of Cebu - in the town of Oslob is Whale Shark watching. Whale Sharks are known to be the biggest species in the world and you can see them close in Oslob! You can also have a close encounter by snorkeling with them. The experience is indeed very memorable and enjoyable. A lot of people flock the area so it is best to go there early so you get to go first in line! Both locals and foreigners visit this place. Oslob is a nice place and the locals are very friendly.

Don't chase the whales! That's the number one rule in our orientation in the Oslob Whaleshark watching tours. The orientation is the guide in order to protect the whales and to have our experience in a smooth flow. As nearly as close proximity to them, this experience is one of a kind. It's been the highlight of my Oslob trip. But this experience requires every visitors to be responsible one. Don't touch the whales or chase them.
When was the last time you encountered such ones in a lifetime experience? I am glad to have one recently.
Hoping in 2023 I will be able to travel in South Korea and Japan. That would be a one's in kind experience too for sure.
Whale Watching Oslob Cebu
One of the tourist attractions in Cebu is the Whale shark watching or swim with the whale, the famous yet the controversial. The activity is good for 30mins only. There are marine biologists in the area monitoring the water activity. All tourist must undergo whale shark orientation. And there are some strict rules to avoid hurting the gentle giants like touch, ride, chase, flash photography & do not wear sunscreen. The whale sharks are wild animals and can come and go as they please. Cebu can fill your day with full of fun and adventures🐋🐳🐠

Tumalog Waterfalls Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Majestic Tumalog Falls
#2023travelwish
The pandemic gave me more appreciation to explore domestically. With the travel restrictions because of Covid-19, I aim to have my trips in our country. This is to boast local tourism as well. I was surprised that are really beautiful places on a less travelled by areas just like this cold and wonderful Tumalog Waterfalls located in Oslob Cebu. The water flow is high and huge. And it is so cold.
My wish for 2023 is to be able to travel in South Korea and Japan. Claiming for it just like this majestic waterfalls.
"Tumalog Falls Cebu Philippines
Tumalog falls on Cebu Island is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the Philippines. The turquoise waters of the falls aren’t quite as vibrant as at Kawasan falls, but the sheer size of the waterfall makes it an incredible place to visit. Due to the somewhat remote location of Tumalog falls in South Cebu it was only discovered in 2012, but thankfully the waterfall is now easily accessible by road. It’s a great place to adventure to as part of a day trip discovering the amazing waterfalls of South Cebu." credits text Reference : https://somethingoffreedom.com/tumalog-falls-cebu/ #cebuphilippines #itsmorefuninthephilippines 🇵🇭

Tumalog Falls in Oslob 🤍
Tumalog Falls has clear, cold and clean water. Though the walking experienced down to the falls was tiring and a bit tricky, will be worthy once you have witnessed the relaxing and natural beauty of the falls. 💚 A must visit place to relax🥰.#bucketlistreboot #mytripvlog #fallsadventure

Make Sure You Catch the Seasonal Waterfall!
📍Tumalog Falls, Oslob, Cebu, Philippines
Standing at approximately 80 to 100 meters in height, the sheer size of this waterfall makes it a unique and an incredible place to visit. The water is crisp and cold which is why it is so refreshing. If you're in Oslob to see the whale sharks, then it's worth stopping here to see. Visited the place with my family last July 2022 and it was a wonderful site.
Drought and other seasonal factors may also make the falls look quite underwhelming. It may be wise to visit between the early weeks of the rainy season.
📌Rates:
Php200 per head - Motorcycle ride from main road to Main Entrance of Tumalog Falls and vice versa
Php50 per head - Entrance Fee/Tourism Fee
(Optional)
Php50 per head - Two-way motorcycle ride down to the waterfall and back to the main entrance, or you may opt to hike and walk your way downhill and uphill.

Secluded Getaway on an Island in Cebu 🇵🇭🏖
#timetotravel
This is a wonderful and gorgeous resort. We went there for just a day and was part of our tour package including the swimming with the whale sharks in Oslob. We stayed there for a few hours, ate to fill our stomach and drank to quench our thirst. Of course we didn't just come here to eat and drink but also enjoyed the crystal clear water, the pristine beach and their infinity pool.
Travel time: 4-5 hours depends on where you are starting off in Cebu.
Boat Ride: Around 10 minutes from Bancogon Oslob Port
Day Tour Rate: 1500 this includes the boat ride. If you want to snorkel then that is an additional fee to be paid there.
Enjoy!

Sumilon Island Cebu is located in the south of Cebu, approximately three and a half hours from the city center. You will enjoy the crystal clear water on this island; however, you must take a boat ride from Cebu's Oslob side. Before visiting this small island, we went whale shark diving. There are numerous travel agencies in and around Cebu where you can book your trip at a reasonable price. #cebutrip #tripblazers #beachlife #philippines #itsmorefuninthephilippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭❤️

Sumilon Beach Resort
This place is amazing! It’s not the techiest place in terms of keycards and such but the internet is fast. My husband works online doing videos and the internet did not disappoint. Now on to the best bits...

Room was so spacious and comfortable. The bathroom is on a whole other level. It’s a room all on it’s own. It seemed to me that all the rooms have a sea view. Or at least most of them. It can comfortably fit a family of 6 with extra mattresses. But is incredibly spacious for 4. The beds were so comfortable and the bathroom had a bidet! If you are looking for razors, bring your own. :)
The amenities/facilities are simply breathtaking and wonderful to be a part of. Sumilon island is a marine sanctuary. They have activities that promote this. So much to do with a family. You can swim with baby sharks (black tip reef sharks), feed the fish in the lagoon area, snorkel/scuba in the marine sanctuary, swim in the ocean or pools, trekking and biking to name some.

A quick Escape in a beautiful Island
To start off I think that the 4.5 hours of driving that I did to reach this place was worth it. The trip will let you pass some of the best beaches coastal towns of Cebu with sights that are worth visiting if you have the time.
When we arrive in the holding are we were greeted by the staff and was lead to the lounge for the orientation. The staff were friendly and we received complimentary Iced tea. Here we were informed that the resort was undergoing some renovations. The main restaurant and the infinity pool are unavailable. Though I understand that it was off peak season, it was still a little disappointing to find out and we were not informed in advance. We were then ferried to the island by a boat. (Make sure that you check weather conditions when travelling here as the seas might be choppy during your travels.
Bluewater Sumilon Island Resort
Sumilon Bluewater island resort is one of the best summer resort I have visited. I love the beach, the food & the smiling staffs on the island. It is a refuge for a well deserved family outing. Trekking around the island is a revelation. Stone-edge paths, light house and the old baluarte. The sand bar at the southern tip is tantalizing with varied shapes depending on the time of the day . The water is pristinely blue & clear. I could not resist a last dip before leaving the island. A place worth going back special summer!

Best private island resort in the Visayas!
Address - 10/10 so easy to locate since the resort provides free boat ride from its private port in mainland Cebu, although you have to take a land trip of 3-4 hours from the airport to reach the port though
Ambiance/Facilities - 10/10 feels relaxing and luxurious, worthy of the money!
Highlights - baby whale sharks in the bay area by 6-7am everyday, the buffet food in the resort's restaurant tastes so so good, service with gusto from the staff, fast internet connection, the swimming gears, the outstanding massage skills and the massage by the shore experience #staycation #beachlife
Avg. Price per Person - 4,000/pax depending on the room selected
Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is the BEST ISLAND RESORT EXPERIENCE you can have when in Cebu, nothing else matches. I am a local Cebuano and I keep coming back to this resort whenever I have the bucks to pay so. 😅 It will definitely relieve your stress.
