Bohol : Panglao Beach
We rented a van when we visited the touristic places of Bohol. We decided to sleep at Panglao Island after that whole day exhausting but very fun tour. The island is 15 kilometers away from Tagbilaran City.

| We woke up with this scenery |
 |
| This is where we stayed for two nights in Panglao, Php1000/room beachfront |
 |
| My daughter had a terrible asthma attack a night before going to Panglao, the sea breeze calmed her down... |
 |
| it will be thriftier to bring food at the island, all the things and food and everything to be bought in Panglao are quite pricey... |
 |
| Walking around Panglao in the morning is the perfect thing to do in the island |
 |
| We just love the beach... beach lovers forever <3 |
 |

We can only take photos at this deluxe resort because accommodation rates ranges from Php8,000 to Php14,000. Their rates here. Visit their official website at http://www.boholbeachclub.com.ph/index.html.
I also read a blog about a resort spa equally beautiful like
the Bohol Beach Club. Panglao Island Nature Resort is an exclusive luxury beach
resort in Dauis, Panglao Island, Bohol. Accommodations at Panglao Island Nature
Resort and Spa ranges from Php7,600 to Php 25,200... OMG! If you want some
peace and quiet then this resort is for you.
The place is offering a day tour for Php700 and maybe half of the price
is consumable. For Php700 price one can
already use their facilities like the infinity pool and their wonderful beach.
There is also a cave within the resort property, the Cambagat Cave, where one
can also explore and swim. Check the PINR link at

I really compared the sand quality of Panglao and that of
Boracay. Panglao's sand quality is much
finer than the latter. The sand is
really talcum-like powdery white. There
are a lot of seaweeds during morning but there are cleaners removing them everyday.
Bohol is so fortunate and blessed with numerous fine and white beaches. The most popular among them is the Alona Beach. It is a small and quiet one and a half kilometer beach located at the southwestern side of Panglao island. The other beaches are Dumaluan, Bikini, Momo and Doljo Beaches.
Panglao Island is one the main tourist destinations in the Philippines.
Talking about Panglao most of the people immediately think about "Alona
Beach". Similar to Boracay you can find an amazing white beach and
crystal clear water. Unfortunately also like Boracay
this place has lost lots of its former beauty. Every season more and
more restaurants and bars are opened and the beach gets pretty crowded
during the high season. Still diving around the island
is one of the best of the Philippines. Especially Balicasag Island is
really worth diving at. If you can avoid to go there in the very high
season Alona Beach is still a beautiful place.

About 250 new species of crustaceans and 2500 new species of mollusks
were found around the island. The discovery was the work of the Panglao
Marine Biodiversity Project. The project found that Panglao alone has
more marine biodivesity than Japan and the Mediterranean sea.

The boatmen within the Panglao island vicinity will offer you an island hopping for Php1500 and above. Snorkeling gears and lifevest already included at that rate.

Balicasag is a flat island four kilometers southwest of the Doljo
Point off of Pangalo Reef, which is about 30-45 minutes from Panglao
Island. Narrow reefs about nine to 49.5 meters wide, are one of the
many reasons why Balicasag Island has gained popularity among many
foreign and local divers.
Diver's Haven is a dive site that features an impressive array of
fish and marine life. Another fascinating dive site is Turtle Point, a
haven for (no surprise) turtles. Turtle Point lies on the eastern side
of the island and features caves about 60 to 75 meters down. Located on
the southwest side is the Cathedral Wall, and the north side is The
Royal Garden. The Garden is profusely covered with corals that form a
psychedelic and vibrant reef full of assorted tropical fish. Last, but
not least is the Black Coral Forest, where one has the rare opportunity
to swim through the black coral.
