Stunningly Beautiful and Affordable: A One-Day Island Hopping Guide to Bohol

🌴【The Ultimate Bohol Guide】Cheaper than the Maldives, less crowded than Phuket! This hidden paradise in the Philippines can no longer stay under wraps! ✨ First off, the cost of living in the Philippines is incredibly heartwarming, and the experiences and scenery don’t disappoint despite the low prices! I wasn’t initially drawn to the Philippines, but this trip turned out to be a delightful surprise! 1️⃣ Island hopping for less than 100 yuan per day! Includes visits to Chocolate Hills, tarsier sanctuary, and Virgin Island. 2️⃣ Crystal-clear waters, white sandy beaches + swimming with whale sharks + underwater cliffs = Instagram gold 3️⃣ Just 3k per person for a week-long trip! Outshines other Southeast Asian islands in value for money. ▫️ Early morning dolphin watching (90% success rate!) ▫️ Snorkeling at Balicasag Island (witness the stunning sardine run at underwater cliffs) ▫️ ATV adventure at Chocolate Hills (same location as Harry Potter filming site) ▫️ Loboc River bamboo raft lunch (tropical rainforest + indigenous dance performances) 🍽️ Foodie radar: ★ Cliffside restaurant Tarsier Paprika (sunset views + Spanish paella) ★ Alona Beach grilled pork ribs (stuff yourself for just 50 yuan per person) ★ Hidden gem coconut ice cream (sold by local kids from pushcarts) 🚤 Transportation tips: • Fly from Manila to Tagbilaran Airport (book Cebu Pacific promo tickets in advance) • Tricycle haggling rule: Start with half the asking price, then add 20 pesos • Charter a yellow outrigger boat (most cost-effective for groups of 6) 📆 Perfect itinerary: D1: Virgin Island hopping → Dolphin watching → Church Island sandbar D2: Balicasag snorkeling → Cliffside dinner at Bee Farm D3: Chocolate Hills ATV → Loboc River cruise D4: Heritage walk in the city → SPA Three months later, I’m still dreaming of that glass-clear sea! "More pristine than Boracay, more convenient than Semporna" "Even diving newbies can spot jackfish here"

This is a must-visit restaurant in Bohol. If you reflect the price in Korean prices, it's not that expensive ~ 📌Don't think of it as local prices Morning Glory and Squid BBQ🦑 Don't miss this I recommend you try it. Personally, the fried rice with dog meat was also very delicious If you go at the wrong time, the wait can be really long It's a popular restaurant that's that much #Overseas Travel #Bohol Restaurant #Bohol Jerry's Grill #Alona Beach Restaurant I hope you go there :)

If only I had known Bohol is this fun and relaxing, I wouldn't have gone to Siquijor!!!
