YEY! I never thought my summer getaways are full of excitement. You know the feeling of you have places to go to after one another? So when I came back from my Ilocos trip and Manila trip (will blog about it soon) I was looking forward to our summer outing with the awesome people at work! Remember my trip to Bantayan Island? Yes, we were more than eight in just one day trip! :) While some of my friends are enjoying their #LaBoracay2014 event in Boracay Island, I am here in Cebu and planning for more trips!
My pre-departure photo at 2AM before the long drive going to Oslob Cebu, 3-4 hours drive from Cebu City we used private vehicles, which is a good advantage.

The popular Oslob Whaleshark Watching
Whale sharks are spotted in Tan-awan, Oslob which is 10 km away from the center of the town. It started last September 2011 and become a tourist attraction and popular all over the world. Local fishermen’s interact with the whale sharks by feeding them by hand while tourists find it entertaining. Source: Wikipedia
Less than 15 minutes and we arrived in Sumilon Island!
Sumilon Island is a 24-hectare coral island off the coast of Bancogon, Oslob, Cebu. The island hosts the Sumilon Bluewater Island Resort which developed the island into an eco-friendly haven for those who want to get away from the stress of city living.[11]
The Island of Sumilon is located in the southeastern tip of the Municipality of Oslob in the province of Cebu. The island has an area of 24 hectares and has clear waters with varying aquamarine hues and white sand beaches in different areas of the island. (source)
YAY! White sand and blue crystal clear water. :)
