1. Watch the Sardines Run In Moalboal

The Moalboal Sardines Run, a captivating experience off the coast of Moalboal in Cebu, awaits adventurous travelers. Right in front of Savedra Dive Center, near Panagsama Beach, millions of sardines gather just 30 meters from the shore. This proximity makes the experience remarkably accessible, even for those not adept at swimming. However, safety comes first; if swimming isn’t your forte, don a life jacket and grab a life ring.

Dive into this underwater spectacle where, alongside the sardines, you might spot sea turtles or even dolphins leaping through the waves. Early risers are in for a treat; dolphins often make an appearance at 5 a.m. For the best experience, consider timing your visit during the Philippines’ dry season, between November and May. This period offers optimal conditions for this aquatic journey.
