Where to Eat
5 picks
Gerarda's Family Restaurant
Order seafood and vegetable dishes such as grilled fish, seafood sinigang if prepared without pork, and vegetable sides; confirm no pork stock or mixed-meat sauces. It has a traditional, leafy-courtyard feel that suits a relaxed Bohol stop.
Bohol Bee Farm Restaurant
Choose vegetable-focused plates, salads, soups, seafood dishes, and honey-based desserts; ask for no pork, no alcohol-based sauces, and separate cooking for your seafood. The clifftop, garden, and sea views match the jungle-wild aesthetic.
Loboc River Resort Restaurant
Pre-arrange a halal-friendly meal with grilled fish, rice, vegetables, fruit, and simple chicken only if the kitchen can confirm halal sourcing and separate prep; otherwise stay with seafood and vegetarian dishes. The riverside setting is green, peaceful, and fits the trip perfectly.
Giuseppe Pizzeria & Sicilian Roast Bohol
Go for egg dishes, fresh bread, fruit, and vegetarian breakfast plates; confirm no pork in any breakfast meats and skip those items entirely. It is an easy, comfortable breakfast stop before the island-hopping day.
Bohol Bee Farm Cafe
Choose vegetable pizza, salads, pasta without pork, and honey drinks; confirm the kitchen can prepare seafood or vegetarian items separately if you want a fuller meal. The garden setting is lush and calm.
What to Do
7 picks
Pamilacan Island Day Trip
Take a boat out for snorkeling, beach time, and a slow island escape; keep this as your main Day 1 highlight and let the rest of the day stay light.
Napaling Reef
Do an easy reef visit with clear water and marine life viewing; if conditions are right, this is a strong off-guidebook bonus stop near your Panglao base.
Chocolate Hills Viewpoint
Visit the classic lookout and spend unhurried time taking in the landscape; go mainly for the scenery rather than making it an all-day outing.
Bohol Tarsier Conservation Area
Visit the conservation area for a low-stress, responsible tarsier stop; keep voices down and follow the rules strictly.
Loboc River Cruise
Take the river cruise as a slow scenic centerpiece, ideally with lunch or just as a calm float through the greenery.
Baclayon Church and Museum
Stop for a short heritage visit on the return to Panglao, giving the countryside day one more worthwhile cultural anchor.
Alona Beach Sunset Walk
Keep it simple: a beach stroll, a drink, and a relaxed sunset finish near your hotel.
