BOHOL
The
island province lies southeast of Cebu in Central Philippines and is
approximately one hour and fifty minutes from Manila. Apart from its
world-famous Chocolate Hills as its attraction, Bohol's beauty lies in
its unpolluted waters which are rated among the best diving havens in the
world and being the home of the world's rarest shells such as the "Gloria
maris" and the Golden Cowrie. The islands of Panglao, Balicasag and
Pamilacan are superb diving spots of the province. In Panglao Island, a
popular destination is the Hinagdanan Cave where you will find underground
springs. Bohol is also the home of the tarsier, the big-eyed
insect-eating monkey whose size is smaller than a boy's fist. Scientists
regard the tarsier as the oldest mammal now inhabiting the earth.
