Why these tags
Beach
From the sources
“Further north on the peninsula, in Saavedra, is White Beach (Basdako), a two-kilometre (1.2 mi) beach that used to be mostly frequented by locals but has since attracted international tourists.”
“White Beach is a popular spot to visit, especially during the weekend, so if you're looking for more quiet beach life go during the week or make your way a bit further north up the beach.”
Diving
From the sources
“Pescador Island, a popular tourist attraction, is part of the municipality and is one of the best-known diving sites in the Philippines.”
“Recreational diving is the main tourist activity in Moalboal, and reefs along the west coast of the Copton peninsula are home to a great variety of marine life.”
Island hopping
From the sources
“Pescador Island, about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) off the coast, is the most popular dive spot, with an underwater cave known as "the Cathedral".”
“With fruit stands and multi-purpose buildings, the wharf serves as a base point for island-hopping to Pescador Island.”
Festivals
From the sources
“Moalboal is also known for its "Kagasangan Festival" (from the Cebuano word gasang, which translates to "coral").”
