Mabuhay! Welcome to Bohol, the Philippines most whimsical island; from its colourful fiestas, to the 1,268 Chocolate Hills, its top-notch white-sand beaches, dolphin watching, diving, river cruising, tarsiers, Filipino-Spanish heritage houses and churches, an interesting history and warm and welcoming people- it is safe to say that Bohol is quite the Philippines in a nutshell.
Bohol is the tenth largest island of the Philippine archipelago, and a top tourist destination of the Philippines. It lies southeast from Cebu Island and is surrounded by other islands on all sides which shielded Bohol from the typhoons that often occur in the region.
