Dumaguete to Siquijor

Siquijor has been a cherished point on the map, sitting within the central visayan region, for centuries. This island is one of the smallest in the Philippines, both in population and in land mass, and yet, it carries a grandeous and mystical personality. Even the Spaniards, during the settler period, called Siquijor “the Island of Fire”, due to the thousands of fireflies that decorate the night’s air. Beyond the Tubod beaches’ white sands, there’s much to experience, like the wondrous butterfly sanctuary near the Cang-apa village. Feelings of antiquity will only be heightened after visiting the Balete tree, a 400 year old tree, which is a known symbol of a longevity in the Philippines.
