In an archipelago comprised of 7,107 tropical islands, a couple of them are just on our doorstep. Apo Island lies 20 minutes away and it is an unforgettable trip and a must for both non-divers and divers. A small fishing community inhabits the island, which also has a small chapel, a lighthouse and a marine sanctuary where the snorkeling is world-class. Other islands in the area to visit are Siquijor, with cave systems, waterfalls and old churches to explore as well as great snorkeling and diving. Further away you find Bohol with its Chocolate Hills, Tarsier Sanctuary and Adventure Park.
