MOALBOAL ISLAND
According to legend, Moalboal got its name from a bubbling spring near the seashore. Locals of the area have circulated stories about a Spaniard asking natives what is the name of the place was. Thinking that they were asked about the bubbling spring, the natives answered “bokal-bokal”, which means spring in the local dialect. Language barriers between Spaniards and the natives resulted to the naming of the area Moalboal, which sounds like “bokal-bokal”.
Despite its proximity to Ceby City, Moalboal has retained a unique charm and relaxed atmosphere that has endeared to local and foreign tourists, especially those who love nature. Beach resorts, dive spots and orchid farms abound the area, making Moalboal the ideal getaway from the busy city life.
Most of the resorts lining up the seashore of Moalboal boast great food, cozy accommodations, breath-taking views and interesting dive spots. Read More: http://www.etravelpilipinas.com/travel_destinations/moalboal.htm

Cebu, an island province, abounds with white beaches and marine sanctuaries. Up north is Bantayan Island’s white beach, a crowd favorite, and Malapascua, a choice diving destination, especially if one is keen on shark sightings.
The south of Cebu also has much to offer, and Moalboal, three to four hours away from Cebu City, is among them. With numerous diving and snorkeling sites, white beaches, and a relaxed vibe, Moalboal is arguably one of the south’s best.
With over 10 dive sites teeming with marine life, divers are in for a treat. Snorkelers won’t be disappointed as well, as the reef drop-off is relatively near the beach.
Pescador Island is one of the best dive sites, with coral gardens, schools of fishes, turtles, and sharks. Pescador became known for a sardine run the past few years, where a swarm of fishes could be seen moving almost as one creature underwater.
