Panglao 4 Days Travel Guide

📍 Itinerary Overview My trip began with a flight to Cebu Mactan International Airport, followed by a ferry ride via Ocean Jet to Tagbilaran. After arriving, I booked a private van to BE Grand Resort in Panglao. Activities included beach relaxation, island hopping, ziplining, and sampling local cuisine. 🚩 Sightseeing Route • Day 1: Arrival and resort check-in • Day 2: Alona Beach and Danao Adventure Park zipline • Day 3: Dolphin watching and snorkeling at Balicasag Island • Day 4: Departure after leisure time at the resort 🏖️ Must-Visit Attractions 1. Chocolate Hills – Iconic geological formations in Carmen. 2. Tarsier Sanctuary – Encounter the world’s smallest primates. 3. Loboc River Cruise – A serene river experience with live music and buffet dining. 4. Hinagdanan Cave – Swim in its clear waters. 5. Virgin Island – A sandbar perfect for photos and relaxation. 🚇 Transportation • I quickly learned there are no Grab services in Bohol; private vans or car rentals are recommended for convenience. • Tricycles and motorbike rentals are affordable options for short trips. 📷 Photo Spots • Chocolate Hills viewing deck for panoramic shots. • Virgin Island’s sandbar during low tide. • Alona Beach at sunset for vibrant colors. 🍜 Local Cuisine • Lechon (roasted pork) – Crispy and flavorful. • Kinilaw (Filipino ceviche) – Fresh and tangy seafood dish. • Calamay – A sweet sticky delicacy made of coconut milk and glutinous rice. 🏠 Accommodation 1.BE Grand Resort, Bohol I stayed at BE Grand Resort, which offered spacious rooms, direct beach access, and free sea activities like kayaking. However, the breakfast could be improved. 💡 Tips 1. I recommend booking tours early to secure slots for popular activities like dolphin watching. 2. It’s wise to bring cash as some areas lack ATMs. 3. Visiting during the dry season (November-May) ensures optimal weather conditions. Enjoy your next adventure! #travel #beachlife #bohol #cebu
