This is just besides placid resort


Liloan Zipline

It was operated by Papa Kits. The Lilioan Zip line is less than 1 km away from the town proper. If you came from city via main highway you need to take right turn and drive slowly because the street going to Liloan Zip line is too small to its actual capacity.

Facilities includes:

1. Fish ponds where the family can catch fish and pay the prey in kilos.
2. Banka or paddle boat is paid per hour. I think it P50 per hour.
3. Horse riding is worth P50 per hour too.
5. Bay motorized boat where you will get a chance to encircle the bay.

Prices - the 400 x 2 ziplines is P200 per ride. It does not includes the entrance fee worth 500 pesos. There are vehicles parting in the main gate and there are also parking at the top just 10 meters away from the zip line.








For those adverturer, i am sure you will enjoy this.

Sugar Beach Resort - Sta Fe Bantayan Island


The front beach of Sugar Beach Resort. We actually have some few pictures and unable to stay long in this beach resort because the there are many more beach resort to visit. There is entrance fee for day visitors who arrived from Banka. It is P30 per head but if you arrive through land trip it will cost you about P100 to P150.

The beach is good in the morning only because in the afternoon the low tide is so big that is not healthy to swim.


This fine white beach resort is a perfect summer and call center team building destination.

Any call center Philippines company will sure enjoy every single moment in Bantayan Island. Anywhere you look its white and there lot of beauties around. I hope I have SLR


What i like in Sugar Beach Resort is the coconut trees right beside the white beach. So common Cebuanos and Manilenos, here is your perfect destination.


Sugar Beach Resort - Sta Fe Bantayan IslandHowever if you are looking for reasonable and romantic resort in Bantayan island i recommend the Abanico beach resort because one concrete room is worth P800 only and you have your CR just in front of the white beach. It is peaceful and the customer service is 100% guaranteed. Just 1 ride from the Pier and you can even walk if you like.

San Francisco Town in Camotes Island Cebu

San Francisco Town is one of the 3 towns in the Island of Camotes in Cebu. It is 30 minutes travel from the Pier while 2 hours sea travel from the Mainland Cebu. From Cebu City it will take 1 hours to reach Danao port. Camotes Island is home of one of the best beach in Cebu.

The road to Danao Lake, San Franciso Camotes. No worries other road to camotes island is concrete.

The loan Caltex Gasoline in San Francisco. The price per liters is expensive. Its P63 if I am correct. a P500 worth of gasoline is enough to circumnavigate Camotes Island

San Francisco Town Market is a reclaimed area. Here you can see the habal habal transportation famous in any part of Cebu.

Every weekend, the town celebrate a Tiange type of market

Main San Francisco Town Center. The road is small and good for 2 car or vehicles only. The street are clean and you will find less local in the street for they are busy people.



The main crossing which tell you where you can go.


A modern house in San Franciso Town. There are actually cheap rooms for rent in this town with the prices ranging from P600 to P1000 pesos. We spent P600 for a night with aircon and CR room. You can use all facilities available like bahay kubo and electricity. Free biking pa. So if you are working in an outsourcing company offering call center services this is the right place to relax and enjoy your summer of weekend. I strongly recommends this island for call center agents.
