I’m working on an itinerary for 27 nights around Visayas this December.
Flying Taipei to Cebu early December.
Rough plan is 7 nights Malapascua, 2 nights Cebu, then either:
Fly to Dauin (~3hr transit) for 4 nights, then 4 nights (~1.5hr transit) Siquijor, and on to Panglao Bohol (~2.5hr transit) to stay there over Christmas
OR
8 nights Sogod Bay (~4hrs transit) from Cebu, then lastly on to Panglao for 8 nights - approximately a 6.5 hr drive-ferry-drive?
Finally. Fly out from Panglao to Manila…home to Canada.
This is a lot of potential scuba diving/dive resorts, so I prefer to break it up with some other activities - hiking, birds, watersports, wandering, beauty and culture.
The other factor is my dive buddy has a pretty severe astigmatism which limits their enjoyment of macro to a degree - so reefs are preferred. Pretty sure she can see thresher and whale sharks though. 😂
Is there much else to do in the vicinity of Peter’s Dive resort for example?
Puerto Galera and Moalboal were on my radar, but I don’t think the logistics make sense.
Open to suggestions please!
