Home

Whether the sun shines or the wind blows, you’ll find yourself amidst the best of both worlds. Cebu, “the Queen City of the South”, the oldest city and first capital of the Philippines, is a perfect balance of island coast and cosmopolitan living.

Usher in the sunrise swimming with the whales in Oslob. Live it up canyoneering in Badian. Cheer spirited adventurers of all ages as they jump off Kawasan Falls. Swim with the turtles and the sardine run in Moalboal. Wind down the night raising your champagne glass against the silhouette of the city skyline.

The Portuguese navigator, Ferdinand Magellan, once landed on the island in 1521 attracted by its focal position.Currently, Cebu is the main center of industry, education, commerce, and trade on the island of Visayas. Coming from the old Cebuano word, “sibu” or “sibo”, Cebu translates to trade, a shortened form of sinibuyang hingpit, ‘the place for trading”.

Explore cultural heritage sites, majestic waterfalls, sumptuous food, spectacular beaches, and vibrant city life all on one island. Cebu certainly spoils you with options
