MOALBOAL

Moalboal is a special place for many reasons. It's only 3 hours away from Cebu City, it's not as densely crowded as Boracay, fine white sand on the beach, freediving depths to 300m, intense coral reef, tourist hub where it's easy to find resorts, restos and bars, and its signature feature - the sardine bowl.

Moalboal is a 7.9 has. municipality that extends to a peninsula on the southwest of Cebu Province. Because of its diverse coral reef system and rich biodiversity, it is often regarded as Diving Paradise of Cebu. Scuba diving and free-diving is the main tourist attraction. There are 2 areas popular to tourists - the Panagsama Beach (Basdiot) or White beach (Basdaku). Basdaku is known for its shifting white sand. It's more quiet and isolated while the Basdiot sees more action with its generous sprinkling of bars, resorts and restaurants.
