About The Port Of Bohol
Bohol sits in the central Philippines, best known for the Chocolate Hills, hundreds of grass-covered limestone mounds that turn brown in dry months and green after rain. The island is also home to the tarsier, one of the world's smallest primates, protected in small sanctuaries where visitors can see them in native forest. Spanish-era churches, including the historic Baclayon Church, reflect centuries of colonial history along the coast.
Ships typically call at Tagbilaran, the island's capital, with tenders often required depending on conditions. From there, the countryside, river valleys, and the beaches of neighboring Panglao Island are within reach by road. A relaxed pace suits Bohol, where cultural landmarks, quiet rivers, and coastal scenery combine for an easy, memorable day ashore.
Pavlus Recommendations
How our planners would spend a day in Bohol.
Cruise the Loboc River
Ride a floating restaurant barge along the jungle-lined Loboc River, with live music and a buffet lunch; about an hour round trip from Tagbilaran by road, then roughly an hour on the water.
Drive Through the Bilar Man-Made Forest
Pass beneath a dense, two-kilometer canopy of towering mahogany trees planted decades ago, a striking roadside stop en route to the Chocolate Hills.
Relax on Panglao Island
Cross the causeway to Panglao for white-sand beaches and clear water at Alona Beach, a good option for unwinding or a short snorkel before returning to the ship.
