True Blue Malapascua Island

Discovering an island in one day is quite impossible right?Like, you have to drown in the google searching to which island can offer a small paradise that would give you a sweet and serene relaxation in just one day.

Anyhow, I found a wishful island to everyone who aim to end their stress once in a while. 

Malapascua Island is a small island located in northern most tip in Cebu, Philippines. It would take a 3-4 hours  and 30 minutes aways from the city. Malapascua Island is known for wide white sand beach, beautiful coral gardens, coral walls and excellent dive spots. There is also a famous Monad Shoal is an underwater plateau where thresher sharks and manta rays can be regularly sighted.

Getting to the island would take a 20-30 minutes ride of boat. 
Seeing the island from afar felt so warm and peaceful. I was amazed with the very clear water.

 The first time I set my foot to the island, small fishes were approaching me ready to pamper my tired feet. I felt like I dipped into a clean, clear and cold water, so relaxing.


My friend and I is really enjoying the area of the beach we discovered, so virgin, no resorts, no cottages, few people only palm trees, fine, soft and white sand with the beautiful view of the running clouds and chasing the wave of the sea. It was home for me. :)

There are too may scenic views that you'll get to discover in Malapascua Island for one day.  You just have to ride a habal-habal then they will bring you to their scenic view they brag the most. They have mangroves, lighthouse and private resort were according to the care taker most of the Filipinos Celebrities do check in for a quick vacation.









There are so much adjectives to describe the Malapascua Island and all I can say for you to truly believe and love even more the Island, you must see it for yourself.

Hot & Cold Water in Malabuyoc


Going to Malabuyoc Hot Spring and Falls

Want to go in one place where you can able to visit two most visited tourist spots at the same time? And want to travel in a one place where Hot Spring is just beside a cold flowing waterfalls?

Then try going to Montaneza, Malabuyoc. Montaneza is the first barangay in the Municipality of Malabuyoc located in Southern part of Cebu. A more than 3 hrs drive away from the city then you'll get to visit a hot spring and a cold flowing waterfalls in a one place. 




Mainit hot spring has 4 pools with different degree of hotness. Well, I dare you to dip yourself in 42.6 degree Celsius hot spring. 



Going to Montaneza Falls, is just walking distance from Mainit Hot Spring, however you have to pass through a cave for you to be able to see the beauty of Montaneza Falls. It is fully developed and so you don't need to worry entering into a cave because it has a stairs that will lead you to the falls. There are a lot of "watchers" who monitor the people around so you may ask them anytime.





Just a warning, be careful with the falling rocks if you go on top of the falls. They actually close it since there were an accident happened before.


Entrance Fee is only 20 pesos for the Hot Spring and the Montaneza Falls.
