My week at Siquijor | The Philippines

I’m right now in Larena, Siquijor. On the pier, waiting for the ferry that is going to Dumaguete. From there we will take another ferry further to Cebu island.

We have spent almost a week here at Siquijor and I love this island. When this post is coming up I think I’ll already be on my way back to Hongkong. I’ve had so bad internet all this time so that’s why my posts about my visit in the Philippines will be a little throwback to some weeks back.

I loved this island, it had everything I could ever ask for. Wonderful beaches, a beautiful underwater world, tons and tons of waterfalls, nice people and great food.

Lagaan and the Zodiac waterfalls

Such a fun place!!! Lagaan Falls is kind of a short waterfall but is one of the few where you can do lots of stuff around it. The boys who work as “guides” at the waterfall will show you all the fun stuff you can do. As trying the swing and jump down in the water, slide down from the waterfall and go inside the waterfall. It’s so much fun!

The Sunsets

We hired kayaks at the resort and paddled out to see the sunset. The whole sky turned into millions of different shades of pink! And from the kayak, you could see the most beautiful big coral reef in the most crystal clear water I’ve ever seen! Lucky me, I made it back in time to take these pictures before the sunset was gone.

Fish Spa

Under this 300-year-old tree, you’ll find a fish spa!! And I do not mean the small types of fishes you find in the tanks at your local spa, no big ones. Some of them were huge and if you’ve ever been to a fish spa you know how much it tickles when really small fishes “eats” on your feet. Then imagine how weird it feels when a huge fish is “eating” on you! I loved the whole thing!! And such a beautiful place.
