Bantayan Island Cebu Getaway

Summer ain't over yet! Hehe...So let me share to you my recent trip to Bantayan Island, Cebu. It was a pleasant getaway from the metro, and indeed it was an unspoiled paradise. Unlike Boracay or Puerto Galera, it's not crowded (I can see pictures in the net that these places are like 'palengke'), all I want is a serene, quiet and relaxing time for my vacation.

How to get there? Take an hour flight to Cebu City, then from Metro Cebu, you can ride a bus or van going to Hagnaya Port in San Remigio town. This wharf have hourly ferry rides to Sta. Fe town, in Bantayan Island.


Besides the pristine waters and sugar white sand in Bantayan Island, historical places like the Bantayan Church will surely amaze you. The church building was started by the Augustinian friars in 1580, it is one of the oldest churches in the Philippines. Cheap resort rates, easy access, historical sites, friendly people will make Bantayan Island a sure hit in the tourism industry. So why not explore more than the usual vacation places? I assure you it's worth spending your performance or annual bonuses. Hehe.
