"Budget friendly tourist destination... an underrated experience."
Another travel experience to share with you guys. In my previous blog I mention an Island that is very peaceful and not overly populated by goers/tourists. And now another underrated adventure to share with you.
Located at the Southern part of the Cebu City, Philippines. A two hour drive from Cebu Bus terminal. Aloguinsan, Cebu is known from Boho River cruising, delicacies and unique resorts , but there are a lot of beautiful spots to explore and to enjoy. Join me and let us explore Aloguinsan, Cebu City.

THE FARMHOUSE
When you ride a public bus, the conductor always suggest you to drop off at Aloguinsan's Farm House.
A center drop off for tourists which mainly offers a lodging and food. And also arranging your activities here in Aloguinsan. In farm house you will get to see an actual organic livestock— pigs, chicken and goat. They also sell souvenirs and native baskets.

I forgot to tell you, the entrance path of the farm house is very unique. You can see above photo, a kind of vegetable vines all over on the pergola.
HERMIT'S COVE
They say there is an old hermit living in this beach before that is why they called it hermit's cove, but hermit is just simply living in solitude and thats what the place offer. I suggest to visit the place weekdays so you can enjoy the solidarity.— weekends are a bit crowded.

You know the place really offers a different vibe. They have this long rock type stairs before reaching the white beach.
