SIQUIJOR - MUST SEE

This is the map of Siquijor and as you can see it only got 6 Municipalities - Larena, E. Villanueva, Maria, Lazi, San Juan, San Juan and Siquijor. And believe it or not you can explore the whole island in just one day. 




Here are the must see places we visited during our day tour :

Lazi Church
 - One of the cleanest church I've seen and it's floor was made of wood. 




Lazi Convent
  - the priest still lives here according to some locals though it's old but still stands strong. 





  




Cambughayay Falls 
 - wish I had a guts to do the tarzan swing but just too afraid... the water was so cold and it's very refreshing



I wanna dive Ala Tarzan but im just too afraid to try it 



and yes, stairs stairs stairs..going down is okay but its a bit challenging for me to go up . This would take about 10 minutes

Cagusuan Beach
 - according to Kuya Joam, he just found out this beach couple of months ago and decided to include this on his Siquijor trip. The beach got a white fine sand and blue clear waters. But during our visit, the waves was too strong.



  




  
Salagdoong Beach 
 - one of the most visited beach in Siquijor but I'm not happy to see since it was already too commercialize and crowded. 




If only i can swim... jumping on this cliff won't be a problem 


Capilay Spring Park
- the atmosphere here was very relaxing, it's a good place family picnic




Century Old Balete Tree
- Free fish spa and I love it. The Balete tree was so huge and old - creepy..




Santa Maria Church and It's Black Maria
the picture and stories of the Black Maria was very interesting and seeing it person was totally different thing.  I decided to include this on our trip even though I'm too afraid to see this image.  






Salagdoong Forest
- it was like man made forest Bohol but smaller.  It serves as a shade to those motorist passing by




Cang - Isok House 
- this is a century old house that still stands near the waters. They're also some people who actually lived here.  







HAPPY TRAVEL!!!

Cagusuan Beach
Cambugahay Falls
Capilay Spring Park
Century Old Balete Tree
Santa Maria Church and It's Black Maria
Salagdoong Forest

WHO TO CONTACT?

The ever reliable KUYA JOAM - 09276932095 (Thanks to http://www.pinoyadventurista.com and http://journeyingpinay.blogspot.com/ -  He will tour you around Siquijor with no hassles.  I was   planning to stay over night but when he assured me that we can finished everything in a day I decided to have a day tour instead since I still have plans the following day (which is my last day) in Dumaguete City.


HAPPY TRAVEL!!!
