The Beauty Within & Beyond Words- BOHOL ISLAND




The world has its mysterious force that pulls your inner being to be strongly delighted and overwhelmed over certain things that enchantingly bewitch the eyes....Bewitched and enticed to the point of extreme perplexity whether the beauty that your eyes is seeing is something that is of "reality" or of "illusion"....


..breath-taking and beautiful creations could never be just an illusion when you have them right in front of your eyes and it couldn't be just memories that fades through time when you capture it by heart...Some people can be bedazzled with a beauty for just a while but a true eyes can be captivated over a lot of things even simple ones for a lifetime...



CHECK OUT BELOW ALL THESE AWESOME PHOTOS OF BEAUTY WHICH I TOOK HERE IN MY OWN PROVINCE OF BOHOL - "THE LAND OF THE GOLDEN SUN"....


Photos below were taken just this month at Bohol Beach Club in Panglao Island (30 minutes ride from the City)...Its pristine white sand beaches and clear turquiose water plus the cozy hammocks are heavenly. Its like a bit of heaven on earth...The clouds at that time are so blue and gleeful..The sun is as wonderful as its golden glory which warmth every cold corners of ones soul...The palms trees are as firm and sturdy yet wave to every soul that pass them by, they're as respectable as the noble guards at the gates,,, The breeze and its coolness with a mixture of sunbathe kiss to the sun is something NO ONE should ever miss... I love everything in it...It's a whole package.. Our Italian guests even had their snorkeling and kayaking here and they were sooo happy and amazed, you can see it from their eyes..





Photos below are some shots at Loboc River (At Loboc Town not less that 1 hour ride from the City ) where our guests were having their exciting Stand-Up Paddle (SUP Tours) for 40 minutes. Stand Up Paddle in Loboc is a newly established water "sport" or "water adventure" activities on the cascading green and clean Loboc River. The river's lushy vegetation, peaceful environment and refreshing kiss of the forest are some of the best experience you can have with nature while paddling on the mystical river...Birds are chirping, the melting sound the small waterfalls Bosai falls is making, the kids swimming in the river, chuckling and giggling. Indeed a wonderful experience....





Below photos were taken at Pamilacan Island (1 hour boat ride from Panglao island ) just this month.
The Island of Pamilacan is a true definition of SERENITY, BEAUTY and FRIENDSHIP...The people in the Island are genuinely hospitable, warm and welcoming. You can always see them smiling and welcome you with eyes full of happiness, excitement and compassion...Most people in the Island depends on fishing as their major livelihood,, that means the sea and everything in it are their beloved treasures. Pamilacan Island is actually known for its playful dolphins and amazing sightings of whales, huge sea turtles, astonishing and beautiful corals and wonderful/fascinating sea creatures. The Island got its named from the word  "pilak" a tool used by the fisherman to hunt big fishes like sharks and even dolphins (BUT THAT WAS BEFORE) today hunting dolphins and whales are banned and punishable by law so the story goes as the hunters of dolphins/whales before,, now  became their protector and serve as guide for tourists who wants to see them (the dolphins & whales)...

Though fishing is still part of the island's major livelihood, they took tourism as one of the alternatives..That way the locals are now pretty passionate and knowledgeable for sustainable tourism most especially ----legal/sustainable fishing activities...





(They're way too far, huhu)
 (One of the three oldest fort/tower in Bohol serve as look out for people from pirates)


Pamilacan is probably one of the Islands with truly friendly and adorable animals/pets..I assure you that, when you go to the island you will be welcomed by (people of course) but aside from them, goats, dogs, chicken, cats and dolphins (hehe) are VERY AMIABLE and LOVABLE I even want to take them home...They're tamed and too sweet to be true, but yeah they are really sweet...I assure you that.. I promise...

 (That dog's name is BOGART, he will surely kiss you when you call him by name----eventhough he doesn't know you)


Another Photos below were taken at Balicasag Island last year. At Balicasag Island (1 hour boat ride from Panglao island), an Island paradise. Its grandeur and breath-taking view will surely attract more tourists and divers. An ideal place for snorkeling and scuba diving. We were in Alona early in the morning, i think about 6:00am when Mr. Bangkero (boatman) docked his boat (we already contacted him the day before). There were a lot of boats for rent though so for tourists, i can assure you that finding a boat going to Balicasag island is never a problem. 

Experience and savour the beauty of nature, the uniqueness of its culture, the fun on its extreme adventures, the gratifying and palatable delicacies, cozy and serene environment/accommodation and most of all the warm and hospitable people....

We went  snorkeling and all we can say is 'WOW'. The mystery and mystic grandeur in the depth is so something you should not dare to miss. A great discovery underwater indeed. beautiful and friendly creatures, magnificent wonders below (i can still feel the kisses of those cute school of fishes on my palms and soles. That was a great experience though, something i wouldn't miss. See for yourself! Try for yourself.



Take a photo of every moment, coz life always gives you something new..You might say "i've already done this, I've seen that, I've been to that" but everything is NEVER EVER the same....our lives everyday are always fresh, GOD never wants our life to be plain, dull and boring, He always makes everyday worthwhile, valuable, special, interesting, beautiful and name them all...GOD created beauty not only to be seen with the naked eye but to be appreciated, loved, respected and cherished....



Bohol is also known for its breathtaking rolling hills, terrains, mountains and beautiful landscapes. With these, many high-stimulants and adrenaline rush activities were being established. A number of towns in Bohol have adventure parks, which means you have  a lot to choose from...We've been to Loboc Adventure Park where they have their zipline and cable car on the air-ride...There is also an adventure park in Danao, the EAT Danao, Catigbian, the Catigbian Adventure Park and Carmen, CHAP Carmen Adventure Park (as far as I know)......Then speaking of breath taking hills, we have the Chocolate Hills with 1776 cone-shaped hills, 210 ft to the viewing deck with 214 steps,, located at Buenos Aires Carmen Bohol...Chocolate Hills actually is the Province' Icon...

Our beautiful nature is one of God's ways of telling us that He has made everything beautiful in His time...
