Siquijor-Dumaguete

[luckyfernz]

Thanks for the tips, tammy1979 and zwitipantejo! Will keep those in mind.

Btw, parang bet ko yung overnight sa Apo Island sa isang homestay doon na maganda naman ang reviews. Mahalia nga lang talaga ang boat rental no? 2 lang kasi kami sa trip.

Apo Island is one of the best Island in Central Visayas. If you came from Dumaguete medyo mahal sya ng unti coz you need to pay for the boat around 3k-5k depending on the size. If you came from Siquijor and stayed at Coco Grove, they normally have a day trip to Apo Island that only cost 1,600 for the whole day inclusive of buffet lunch. If you're not staying in Coco Grove, better yet try to have an overnight stay in Apo Island via Negros. I know someone whom you can have a 3,300boat return trip and can manage to give you the best areas to see in the island.

Hello mga sis... Natapos ko na rin I-skim ang thread na to... However, I need your help or some suggestions sana...

1. Aside from Kuya Joam sino ba ang 2nd or 3rd best tourist guide sa siquijor?
2. aside from coco grove and clay something resort what is the affordable inn/hostel/resort sa siquijor?
3. sino ang nakapag try ng CLIFF JUMPING sa salagdoong beach?
4. sino nakapunta na sa Apo island from dumaguete? okay na po ba?
5. ilan hours from dumaguete to oslob cebu?


ito po details ng flight and IT namin hopefully. pero no definite day kung [textspeak!] uunahin namin

ticket: 1,898 @ airphil (manila-dumaguete & vice versa)
arrival @dumaguete: may 9, 2013 @ 9am
departure from dumaguete: may 12, 2013 @3:50pm

eto yung gusto namin ma experience:

1. snorkling @ apo island dumaguete
2. cliff jumping @ siquijor
3. whale watching @ oslob cebu

1. Aside from Kuya Joam sino ba ang 2nd or 3rd best tourist guide sa siquijor? there are few names mentioned from here at GT you can do backreading.. but in siquijor, if you know how to drive a motorcyle, mas ok mas tipid, no need for tour guides as long as you have the map. Siquijor is a small island lang kasi.
2. aside from coco grove and clay something resort what is the affordable inn/hostel/resort sa siquijor? Royal cliff, Sunset heaven (all from San Juan, best to check resorts in San Juan! if lesser price pa rin, there's 500 pesos per room only that its not near the beach side) also try U.Story
3. sino ang nakapag try ng CLIFF JUMPING sa salagdoong beach? I've tried cliff jumping in Salondoong, its a must try experience!
4. sino nakapunta na sa Apo island from dumaguete? okay na po ba? Apo Island is beautiful though the marine sanctuary was affected still best pa rin you can see a lot of huge turtles.
5. ilan hours from dumaguete to oslob cebu? if mag commute kayo better do this: dumaguete to sibulan pier (10 minutes), Sibulan pier to Liloan Pier (southeast cebu area) 15-20minutes by ferry, lilo-an pier to Oslob its less than an hour, you should be in Oslob early in the morning kasi may cut-off ang feeding of the whale sharks ng 12noon.

na-meet ko na si kuya tata, mabait sya & ok kausap. 1,000 rate nya kasama pick-up sa port then punta ng coco grove iwan yong gamit bago magtour. 4pm na kami natapos sa tour, nagmamadali kami since 5pm yong kasal ng friend ko. 9am yong sinakyan naming jaylann, ang bagal inabot ng 1.5 hour. mas ok sana to kasi open yong ferry mahangin. yong delta na sinakyan namin ngayong 2pm mabilis 1 hour lang kaso sobrang nakakahilo ang lakas ng alon. ang baho pa ng gas dahil aircon, kulob. buti na lang uminom ako bonamine.

[tammy1979]

^^ jaylan din ang sinakyan namin papunta dun sis, dun bumigay ang sikmura ko, dagdag pa na umuulan so nakababa yung mga pantakip nila sa gilid, and yes amoy gas.. ang bagal ng byahe, almost 2 hours nga yata yung sa min..hehe

[aicute12]

marami na rin kayong magagawa sa dumaguete, suquijor at cebu sa loob ng 7 days. medyo alanganin pa nga ang bacolod pero mas possible isingit kesa sa iloilo.

sis, worth it bang puntahan yung Apo island?

[rocky]

^di pa ako nakakapunta don sis, pero kung mahilig ka sa snorkeling malamang mag-eenjoy ka

[jp_jameop]

sisses question... anong month maganda pumunta dito and ok ba to travel with 1 yo baby? tnx tnx!!!

[rocky]

^mas maganda pag summer para sure na hindi cancel ang mga byahe ng ferry. kung sanay yong baby mo sa byahe ok lang sis.

[luckyfernz]

sis, worth it bang puntahan yung Apo island?

Yes sis, worth it, you will know how old style of living meron dun, and you will see more of the turtles and also snorkeling & diving (if you dive) is a must!

[lakwatsa]

share ko lang, para sa mga namimiss na ang Sans Rival at Silvanas ng Sans Rival, maglaway-no-more mga sis! kasi kanina nasa cash & carry ako meron nagtitinda dun! happiness!

magkano na nga ba sans rival at silvanas sa dumaguete mismo?
