Funtastic Island is part of Gibitngil, an island-barangay gifted with sparkling waters, vast coral reefs, long stretch of sand beaches, a picturesque sand bar and rock formations reminiscent of those in Coron, Palawan. Aside from the natural sceneries, Funtastic Island also boasts of several activities for the thrill-seekers such as a cliff-to-rock zipline, kayaking and snorkeling.

But the most challenging that the island offers is the 40-foot cliff diving platform, hailed Adventure of the Year for 2014 by ABS-CBN’s local magazine show MagTV.

The attraction, whose development is part of the town’s efforts to step up its tourism initiatives, has been attracting hundreds of local and foreign tourists, making Medellin one of the Department of Tourism’s top 10 most visited municipalities in Central Visayas for two years now.

The exquisite beauty of the Cebu Island have truly captivated so many hearts as it offers almost everything that could take someone’s breath away and make them come back again and again. Its magnificence is now the talk of many travelers. Many have been discovered and yet there are still so many to be discovered.

In the humble town of Medellin in the northern part of the Cebu Island, a modest yet fascinating island was recently discovered. The Gibitngil Island, also known as the FUNtastic Island, lies with tranquility in the calm waters of Medellin. This Island, being referred to as FUNtastic, could really offer so much fun. From Zip lining, Kayaking, cliff diving, or just merely swimming and enjoying the crystal clear waters, Gibitngil has it all.

Upon approaching the island, colorful cottages that reflect the liveliness of the Island’s activities will come to view. They are but spectacular sight that allures the visitors to come not just once. The bewitching limpid waters are so irresistible that one would surely be tempted to take a dip and experience it.  Read More:  https://www.cebucitytour.com/gibitngil-island-medellin-cebu-a-funtastic-discovery/

Eco-adventure and beach outings at affordable rates are giving Medellin town a new reputation as a fun destination in north Cebu.  It was the first in Cebu to offer skybicycle rides – a fusion of zipline thrill on a real bike 135 feet in the air – which  opened on Valentine’s Day.

“Enjoyment doesn’t have to be expensive.  We don’t charge a lot because the facilities are managed by the local government,” said Mayor Ricardo Ramirez.

White sand beaches and coral reefs are also being showcased with colorful cottages on the shore and the island barangay of Gibitngil.  Read more:  http://cebudailynews.inquirer.net/56355/funtastic-medellin#ixzz4own63nEe
