What to bring?

by Ged Fabros

As with every trip, you need to be well prepared to bring all the necessary things to make your vacation the best that it can be. Here’s our list:

1. Camera/ Video cam – Bohol is just filled with natural beauty and it would be a waste if you wouldn’t take pictures. From the white sand beaches to places such as the Hinagdanan Cave and Loboc River, leaving a camera behind would be one of the biggest mistakes you will make. It would also be highly preferable if you can afford to bring a underwater camera because Bohol has a lot of snorkling spots with some of the best fishes and corals you will see in the Philippines.

2. Clothes, Swimwear, Jackets – I guess all these are self-explanatory. I would advise you though to bring a lot of swimwear as the beaches in Bohol are simply hard to resist. Snorkling is also one thing that you must do while you’re in Bohol. At night the wind becomes really chilly and that’s were those jackets come in. Its really nice to go out for a stroll along the beach when the stars are up and the moon is shining brightly.

3. Money – Believe it our not, the locals in Bohol can easily spot if you are a tourist or not. If they figure out that you are not from there, prices immediately sky rocket which is why you should already be prepared for that.

4. Guidebook – If you don’t have anyone who would accompany you around the area, it would be nice if you have a guidebook along with you. You would want to really explore the entire island and you can do so in just a couple of days if you know where to go to.
