My friend and I came for lunch but did not realize that this was also a shell museum. They have a fantastic collection of seashells, all sorted out and arranged by type ... Gastropods, bivalves, chitons, nautilus, cowries, etc. Lunch on the patio was delightful. The adobo and garlic rice was yummy. Great value!

We spent a fun couple of hours at the waterfalls. Beautiful blue water. We arrived with our scooter, there is parking for them just at the entrance to the falls, parking fee is going by donations, so you pick how much you want to pay, and those guys really watch over the scooters. The entrance fee is normally 10 php, but we got there early so no one was there, we got in for free. There are 3 Tarzan swings, different heights, 50 php for unlimited swings. They are really fun, I was scared before the first swing but you just have to go and after that it was just all fun. Then you can stand under the smaller falls to get a nice shoulder / back massage and just lounge in the water. There are some vendors there, I think they open around 9 to buy some food. We got there around 7:30/8:00 and it wasn't crowded at all, so I would suggest to go early. It's definitely worth a visit!

My partner and I visited on a whim having seen Saladoong Forest on the map we decided to check it out. Upon arrival were both in awe of the crystal clear blue water and luckily we had brought our snorkelling gear. We were very surprised at the amount of coral garden here, with multiple fish species, as well as coral types rarely seen whilst snorkelling. The water level deepens very quickly and the further you go out the stronger the current becomes. I would highly recommend those that do not consider themselves “strong swimmers” to avoid swimming past the hammock swings, or you will likely struggle to swim back, unless of course you have fins. For those interested in seeing epic coral and lots of fish species in crystal clear water with up to 15m visibility, look no further! Another bonus is the opportunity to watch people cliff jump off a scarily high board, very entertaining!

Located at the center of the town, it is very easy to find. The pool has fish on it, my guide explained that locals use it also for swimming. The plants around the pool look so green and healthy. Near it is a statue of Mary that can be reached by using the high stairs.
