December and May is generally the warmest. Its name is already a hint of their best product – the
lechon, described by culinary expert Anthony Bourdain as the ‘best pig ever’ and hailed by all Filipinos
as a celebration must serve especially in weddings and fiestas. Furniture is also world-class in Cebu.
Bohol, composed of many offshore islands, also has a lot of surprises in store. Chocolate Hills, one of
the country’s National Geological Monuments, is a popular tourist spot. Whale and Dolphin watching
are some of the exciting activities offered, and get to meet the elusive tarsier as well. A cruise in small
bancas along Loboc River gives couples an experience to remember while photographers capture
the moment for you to keep. Lakes, springs, waterfalls, beaches and diving sites are plentiful too
in Dumaguete City and nearby towns. Visitors are advised to drop by first at the City Tourism Office
where brochures and leaflets will be given to you along with more travel tips. One of their fiestas,
the Buglasan Festival of Festivals showcases the talented people in the province while the Sandurot
Festival in November is a re-enactment of how Dumaguete has warmly welcomed visitors ever since
and a celebration of their cultural diversity.
Leyte also has fair share of marine treasures. Padre Burgos in the south offers diving spots where
majestic whale sharks, sea turtles, colorful fishes and corals are untouched. Go kayaking, skimboarding,
snorkelling or camping in by clear waters and sugary sands. Give away their local pastillas de leche
and roscas for guests to partake.
