Eight unmissable activities in Tagbilaran City
Tagbilaran City has a few incredible sites to explore and even more treasures outside the city limits!
Go scuba diving. The Philippines is one of the best places in the world to scuba dive. Tagbilaran City is full of excellent diving schools to get your PADI certification so you can dive beneath the waves to discover a whole new world.
Visit the Bohol National Museum. Learn about the history of this vast island in this fascinating museum. Start with its colonization by the Spanish and subsequent liberation before moving on to the parts that preserve and celebrate Boholano culture.
Wander around the Bohol Cathedral. This beautiful building is a quick pit stop when spending the day exploring the city, but it's worth stopping by to marvel at its baroque design.
Relax at Kainggit Beach. This cove with crystal-clear waters is an idyllic place to swim, sunbathe, and chat with locals.
Walk along the Jaycee Promenade. This location is ideal for soaking up the city atmosphere and watching the sunset over Tagbilaran Bay and Panglao Island. Get there early, pick a cozy spot, and spend the early evening people-watching as the setting sun lights up the scene with an orange glow.
Take in panoramic views atop Banat-I Hill and Elly Hill. Banat-I Hill is blessed with views of the Mindanao Sea and the Strait of Panglao Island. The peak of Elly Hill gives way to beautiful vistas of rolling hills and sprawling plains.
Kayak through jungle rivers. Take a day trip to Bohol's major waterway, the Abatan River, to kayak beneath the canopy of an ancient jungle. This excursion gives a unique perspective on country life in the Philippines. It is a treat for all the senses, thanks to the cacophony of animal sounds and visual delights on offer along the way.
Visit the Chocolate Hills. This iconic site is why most travelers visit Bohol Island, and it doesn't disappoint. With more than 1700 mounds spreading out as far as the eye can see, it's truly a unique landscape. The hills get their name from their brown coloring in the dry season; it's like looking at a field of giant balls of chocolate.
