Is Siquijor Island in the Philippines fun?

I think Tin Island in the Philippines is quite fun. Siquijor Island (Tin Island for short) is located near Bohol and Dumaguete in the Philippines. It is the third smallest island in the Philippines and is famous for its jelly sea. . Now I will share with you a guide to visiting Tin Island.

Transportation: It takes 1 hour by boat from Dumaguete and 1.5 hours by boat from Bohol. You can buy tickets online in advance, or go to the pier to buy tickets in advance.

How to play: ride a motorcycle or ride a tutu car. Friends who can ride motorcycles recommend riding around the island. You have more free time. We chose to rent a tutu car and check in the scenic spots along the prescribed route. We always felt that we did not experience the island to the maximum extent, which was a bit regretful. Tin Island is very small, and it does not take long to circle around the island. You can go back and forth on the same day. You can also live on the island and take your time. There are many excellent resorts on the island.

Attractions:

Century-old banyan tree and small fish spa: a small pool under a century-old banyan tree. Visitors can put their feet in and let the small fish suck and remove dead skin. The fish spas in other places are all about very small fish, but the fish here are so big that they feel like they can take my feet in one bite. There are several small shops selling souvenirs at the entrance of the scenic spot, including refrigerator magnets, keychains and straw bags at affordable prices! Before leaving, the tutu driver reminded me that if I wanted to dive at the next stop, I could change in the bathroom here.

Cambugahay Falls tree vine diving: Cambugahay Falls on the Po-o River is a must-see attraction on Siquijor Island. It consists of cascading waterfalls, and the calcified milk lake water sparkles in the sun. In the light, the warriors lined up on the high and low platform to jump down on the tree vines. The scene was really original and touching. The audience screamed from time to time, which made people excited and frightened. Seeing the children bravely standing on the platform, I was eager to try it. After observing for a while, I rented a life jacket and put it on and climbed up to the first platform. At this time, you should hold the tree vine tightly with your hands, and let go when it reaches the highest point. Before entering the water, pinch your nose, close your eyes, relax your body, and you will soon surface. It may feel a bit scary for people who don’t know how to swim. After trying it, it’s super fun and I’ll get on to a higher platform right away. Don’t be afraid! There are no tickets for the waterfall, only platform jumping fees (unlimited times) and parking fees. There are locals at the entrance leading the way. If you want to tip, you can choose to ignore it, but they will take photos for you and guard your belongings. Key points: In addition to being fun here, you can also take beautiful photos~ There is a very simple changing room.

High platform diving (salagdoong beach): salagdoong is a beach in a resort. Tickets are required to enter. The sea water here is very beautiful. You can snorkel and dive. There are two high platforms, about 7m and 10m. It was scary to watch, but I didn’t try it for other reasons. My friends who were traveling with me did it a few times and said it was similar to tree-vine diving, except that the time in the air and underwater was a little longer, haha. When no one is using the high platform, you can take pictures, just tell the guard and pay attention to safety~

In addition, there are other attractions such as Lazi Church and Cantabon Cave. All in all, this is an island worth visiting!

The most unpopular island in the Philippines, it is a 100% original ecological island with no commercial operation. The scenic spots on the island are far away from each other. You need to rent a motorcycle to get around the island!

How to get there: Mactan Airport #Bohol[Location]# It takes 1.5 hours by boat. It costs 1,025 pesos to take the business class. The advantage is that there are fewer people on the top floor and it is more comfortable.

The process of taking a boat is the same as taking an airplane. You must check in first and then check in your luggage. Each piece of luggage is charged according to the specifications. You also have to pay entry tax and departure tax. The total fee is 500 Sopes.

The hotel rents a motorcycle for 800 pesos for two days; renting a motorcycle at the Yamashita Pier is half the price.

Precautions for motorcycling around the island: Make sure you have good driving skills. The island is full of mountain roads, and only dangerous hillsides have guardrails. Return to the hotel before the sun sets. It is easy to have no signal on your mobile phone and cannot navigate. It is dark and there are no lights. It is dangerous to see the road clearly.
