Hello Good People
My buddy and I are planning a 2-week holiday in the Philippines at the end of February and were hoping we could ask your sage advice on destinations. We have an overly ambitious itinerary and know we need to cut it down some. Here was our original plan:
-Arrive in Manila and fly down to the Visayas the next day - either to Cebu or Bohol
-Dive several days at each of these areas: Bohol, Moalboal, Dumaguete, Malapascua
-Travel up to Puerto Galera to dive for a few days until we finish the trip
We think we have too many Visayas destinations for a realistic 2-week itinerary.
1. What would you recommend keeping or not?
2. Is it worth making that extra trip up to Malapascua or would we be better off concentrating around Bohol, Moalboal and Dumaguete?
3. If we do go to Malapascua, should we axe Bohol or Moalboal or Dumaguete?
4. Would Siquijor be worth a side trip?
5. Are we missing anything you would most recommend? We figure that, given limited time, Palawan would unfortunately not be in the cards this time.
Thanks so much for your help.
Happy diving, Scott
