Top Beaches in Western Visayas

Check out the local shops for souvenirs instead of tourist traps. I found some cool handcrafted items that were way cheaper and better quality!

I suggest bringing your own snacks and drinks. Beachside vendors can be pricey and having your stuff means you can chill without worrying about costs.

If you want to enjoy that beautiful water without the throngs of people, go for a swim past 4 PM. It’s the perfect time to relax and snap some great photos.

My advice is to book an island-hopping tour with local operators. They’re usually cheaper and less crowded than the ones advertised at hotels; ask around for good recommendations.

You gotta try the trikes for getting around! They’re cheap and fun, but do haggle a bit. I learned that the hard way after overpaying for my first ride.

I recommend booking water sports activities in advance. I waited until I got there, and most slots were full or overpriced. Plan ahead to save some money!
