Destination : Bantayan Island Cebu
Bantayan island is one of cebu's not so best kept secret. it is located off the northwest of cebu mainland. the island is still not that developed if you compare it to the sprawling island of boracay and bohol so it is definitely not overcrowded and over priced so this place is definitely for people looking for a great beach like boracay but hates the crowd and noise of the island and just want a total relaxation. aside from being a great beach destination the island is also consider as a lenten destination for catholics devotee during the holy week people gather in the town center of the island to witness one of the most solemn holy week procession in the country so reservation to the island during this period is a must. the town of bantayan is also known for its mouth watering dried fish and freshly catch seafoods like squids,lobsters and crabs. and also the island is rich in history and other natural wonders some of the oldest churches in the visaya is situated in the island. now i think thats just enough reason for you to visit the island great beaches great food and i forgot to mention bantayanons are simple hearted and friendly...
Getting There:
To get to bantayan you can take a 30 mins plane ride from cebu city mactan airport via SEA Air(temporary suspended) or you can go by land by taking a bus at north cebu bus terminal traveling by land may take 2 to 3 hours to hagnaya and then take a ferry boat from hagnaya to sta fe where most of the beautiful beach of bantayan is located.

Puerto Galery Trip Report
Hello readers soooory for not updating i was so busy these past few weeks have a lot of things to do. i was stress out and one of the best thing to ease your stress is to go out of town. so i invited my friends to go to puerto galera over the weekend for some r&r and the island never failed to pamper me. though prices are starting to skyrocket in the island starting from the port where you buy the banca tickets and terminal fee. my last trip to puerto galera was last January its just one day a very short trip so this time we decided to stay for 3 days and we are so lucky that the typhoon didn't spoil our trip. it was sunny in the island for the whole 2 days but the waves are so big so we wasn't able to swim that much. but we are able to do snorkeling and of course party at night. like what i have said in my previous post, party in galera is one of the best beach party here in the Philippines just dont forget to try the signature drink of the island the mindoro sling.
Getting To Puerto
Puerto Galera is 3 to 5 hours away from manila you can go by car or by bus there are several bus going to batangas port scattered all over the metro they are in taft avenue,buendia,cubao and alabang. fare is 180php and then the boat fare from batangas port to puerto galera is 280 php if you purchase a one way ticket but if you get the roundtrip ticket u will have a 60 php dicount so instead of 560 php it will be just 500 php and then u will have to pay the 50 php environmental fee. so its 910 php all in all for the fare.
Where To Stay
I highly recommend vm or white beach resort as we always stay there ever since though there are lots of resort to choose in the island i already feel at home at the whote beach resort friendly staff and very accomodating and the resort is loceted conveniently.
