Mabuhay Philippines !
For any first-time traveler to the Philippines, Bohol is always a must-visit place as this generous province in the Visayas is a condensed version of the country.
Bohol, the must-see island!
Bohol is known for its coral reefs and unusual geological formations. Dive into the colorful seabed and be enchanted by the famous sprawling Chocolate Hills. Spoiler alert: they’re not actually made of chocolate…
In Bohol, you can also find the smallest monkey called the “Tarsier”. The locals call it “mamag”! But be careful, they are very sensitive creatures. Don’t touch them or they will kill themselves…
So, whether you are looking to sunbathe on white sand beaches, indulge in a relaxing river cruise or conquer exciting adventures, don’t hesitate to put Bohol on your travel list!
There are two places to see tarsiers on Bohol Island, the Philippine Tarsier Sanctuary in Canapnapan (next to Corella) and the Tarsier Conservation Area in Loboc. We highly recommend going to Canapnapan which is an official foundation that protects the tarsiers living in the wild.
