Why these tags

Diving

From the sources

“The city has the main airport of the region, many beaches and dive sites, and quite a few resorts.”

“You may do shore entry in few areas but most dive sites can be reached by boat.”

Island hopping

From the sources

“Olango Island is in Cebu Province, just offshore from (east of) Mactan Island and Lapu-Lapu city.”

Sentences are from this town's Wikipedia and Wikivoyage articles, found by code because they mention the vibe; they are not necessarily the ones the model relied on.
