Diving
Scattered throughout Eastern Visayas are
unexplored, well-preserved dive sites known only to a few adventurous
divers... an entirely different world lurks under the island of Limasawa
in Southern Leyte, where walls of indescribable array of corals wait to be
admired by divers. The nearby town of Padre Burgos also offers
beautiful dive sites visited only by a few - the Kalanggaman Island in
Palompon, Leyte beckons to the amateur divers. Here also, the
dolphins coming from San Bernardino Strait frolick with divers and local
travelers.
All trips need local dive experts for maximum enjoyment.
Surfing
Known to an "elite few" - the Pacific
coastal towns of Eastern Samar is a haven for surfers amateurs and
professionals alike. The remoteness of these towns give the surfers
a "proprietary" sense of the enormous Pacific untamed waves, challenging
surfers for an ultimate experience.
Thoughtfully designed schedules and friendly local people await
adventurous surfers. Contact the office of the Provincial Government
of Eastern Samar.
Trekking
Take an intimate, personalized travel to
commune with nature to the Mahagnao Volcano National Park in Burauen,
Leyte. Blessed with two inactive volcanoes, the lush vegetation
provides enormous peace and tranquility as a balm to modern life.
Hot springs, narrow pathways and sun-beamed river banks make a unique soft
adventure for amateur hikers. The fresh mountain air adds an
invigorating experience to the trekker.
Select a day and a custom-built itinerary will be designed by the local
government unit in Burauen to suit your personal interests.
Best in the summer months of March to June. DENR-8 and DOT-8 will be
around to facilitate your travel needs.
