    Our tour started early in the morning when our tour guide Al picked us up from our hotel. We then headed to the town of Bais north of Dumaguete, our group boarded a private boat and set off in search of dolphins. It wasn’t long before we spotted these playful creatures jumping and diving in the water. The experience was simply magical – there’s something about seeing dolphins in their natural habitat that fills you with awe and wonder.

    After spending some time with the dolphins, we headed to the nearby Manjuyod White Sand Bar, which is often referred to as the “Maldives of the Philippines.” And it’s easy to see why – the sand bar stretches for miles and is surrounded by crystal clear water that’s perfect for swimming and snorkeling. We spent several hours soaking up the sun, swimming, as well as having our lunch on board the boat and taking in the breathtaking views.

    At around 4:30 we headed back to Dumaguete and to our surprise Al brought us to a hot spring area in Valencia town, a welcome surprise complementary add-on side trip from TourXP where we enjoyed the rejuvenating hot springs in Pulang Bato area.
