   • When traveling from abroad to the Philippines.

   • we drive to the settlement of Panglao.
   • This is our base from which to explore the island and where our lodge is located.
   • We will be hanging out at Alona beach.
   • About 1,500 meters (1,640 yards) long and lined with palm trees, resorts and shops.
   • the white-sandy Alona beach is popular both day and night.

2. Day 2: Making Friends with Sharks, Chocolate Everywhere, Tiny Primates with Huge Eyes And Cruising a Colorful River

   • After swimming with whale sharks early in the morning, we explore Bohol Island.
   • Specifically, we see Loboc River (for a cruise), Tarsier Sanctuary, Chocolate Hills, Habitat Butterflies Conservation Center, Bilar Man-Made Forest and Baclayon Church.
   • Chocolate Hills’ unique and mound-shaped formations are Bohol’s most popular attraction.
   • During the dry season, the grass-covered hills turn chocolate brown in color.
   • This transforms the area into seemingly endless rows of chocolate kisses.
   • Another highlight is a visit to a sanctuary to see endangered tarsiers.
   • These primates can only be found on a few islands throughout Southeast Asia.
   • Not least is a boat cruise along the Loboc River.
   • Lunch is included in this boat cruise tour.
