Siquijor

Siquijor is a small island in Visayas.

There is frequent passenger boat traffic from Dumaguete. There are also direct boats to the Tagbilaran.

Scuba Diving There is really good diving around the island, especially in southern end. Dive shops on the island also make trips all the way to the Apo Island (excellent!) and Baligasac.

All the resorts offer decent meals, but are expensive. These town's are small and everybody knows where the resto's are.

Most people stay in some resort next to the beach around the island. One quiet and bit remote option is Kiwi in northwest tip of the island. If you don't mind staying away from the beach try Swiss Star in Siquijor town. It's a good value for money.
