Spring pool in Moalboal!!
#timetotravel
Getting There - The best way to get there is by motorcycle because it's absolutely far and in a mountainous area. In Moalboal, you can rent a motorbike for a day for ₱300 ($6). From there go to the highway and drive down to the south and go on Santander-Barili-Toledo Road. Drive straight on the road for approximately 5 minutes and turn left into a side road in Barangay Balabagon. There is no conspicuous landmark or signage at the intersection when you make the turn, but the only landmark that can possibly be noticed is “BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH.” When you see it, make a left turn and go on to a side road that leads you to Barangay Busay. Keep going up, and you’ll see Busay’s Barangay hall and basketball court. Pass by them and keep going up until you see small white signage standing on the side of the street that says “This way to Busay Cave.”
Attractions - Visitors can enjoy swimming in a spring pool in the cave. It's not that deep but good enough for you to enjoy the water. The water is so clear and it's quite cold as well so you might feel freezing if you stay longer. Bat watching is also available but you need to have a guide if you go there you can ask the big guy who collects the entrance fee about the guide. Entrance Fee for Filipino citizens cost 12pesos and for Foreigners 25 pesos. It's not that popular yet for tourists so expect for more locals in the area.
Hotels - There are lots of hotels in Moalboal or Badian that you can choose. It's up to your preferences.
Food & Restaurants - Food and Drinks are available at Busay Cave. Some people have food stalls in the area.
Shopping - Moalboal has a shopping mall for your needs.

Badian Canyoneering (gatorade water)

Badian Canyoneering Adventure in Cebu!
For those who want a more active itinerary, Canyoneering in Cebu - Badian will take up an entire day. You have to have a little bit of fitness level to achieve this as I wasn't able to complete it due to my heart condition at that time.
Along the trekk there will be instances where the only way through is to jump off a cliff or waterfalls. It is more fun to join a group for this activity, and mingle with other tourists. We even created a group where we share photos we took of each other.
I would do this again soon, now that I'm better!
