Cebu DIY Part 1 - Exploring South

I and my friends booked this trip a year ago, we had it with one of cebupac's zero fare so we only paid less than 500 for our RT ticket.

I was ready when my boss suddenly asked me to attend a business training for few days this was my dilemma I had to move my vacation leave and rescheduled my flight. Good thing cebupac had rescheduled my flight few days ago so I called to get a one time adjustment for free, thank God it was approved!

Osmeña Peak, Mantalungon Cebu

How to get there:

From southern bus terminal take any bus that will pass by Dalaguete Junction (like oslob and bato) from Dalaguete then ride habal habal motorbike for Php 100. You'll pass by Mantalungan market after the market the road going to the foot or jump off is a real rough road so hold on tight (30 minutes ride).

Guide Fee would be Php 50. I gave Php100 for taking my bag and photos since I did it alone.

Kawasan Falls in Bandian

This time the water is unclear due to the rain better to go here during summer. Anyway after the trekking you can ask your habal-habal driver to take you here. I didn't go here since I took another route and my haba-habal driver asked for 400php which is out of my budget for that day (i took the long way to get to Badian though) my friends went here and told me their stories.

If you have a lot of energy and your body can take 5 hours of trekking I suggest you try Osmena - Kawasan Traverse.

Since 400php going to Kawasan is out of budget I took the long way - I had to go back to the highway and took a bus going to Oslob or Bato from there I took another bus that will pass by Badian - you'll find buses Cebu city via Bariles (this buses will pass by Badian and Moalboal) it cost me (70 php to Bato and 70 php to Moalboal)

Kawasan is like 20 minutes away from Moalboal you can ride habal-habal to take you to Kawasan.

MoalBoal town was quiet and the food is really good and cheap. Budget wise you can find accommodation for less than 1000php (shore area) and less than 300php (dormitory type).

Here are some photos for this trip

Badasku Beach also known as the White Beach

Panagsama Beach - Diving Area

You go to Panagsama to get cheap accommodation it's around 5km away from the white beach.
This is where you should stay in case you're more into diving.

Moalboal town

Food you must try (Php 50)

Seaweed salad and their version of Tortang Talong (favorite)

I'll end the part one here... enjoy!
