A superb experience you’ll surely enjoy especially when you jump together with your friends. You can do this anywhere with a measure of your chosen heights of the cliff.
Again, for safety purposes measure first the rage of the water’s feet before jumping and avoid making your head land off first to the water. If you really feel nervous and scared but still eager to jump off the cliff, just think you are brave and you want extraordinary adventure. Doing this with a tour guide or a resident with you is always recommended.

Sleeping outside the house using only a tent is cool but it is more stimulating when you sleep over a mountain or a camping site with your family and friends (you can also bring your pet if you want to). Apart from your usual stuff you bring for overnights, you can also bring a telescope for a distant sight-seeing or an overview to the stars.
Just a tip, you can set your camping adventure at the ´The Genesis Valley Resort’ where you can experience Ala Athens concept in Cebu. You may set up your tent or the tent provided by the resort on the ground or at the top mountain of the resort. This place is perfect for team buildings, general assemblies or even just ordinary outings.

It’s ironic — whale shark watching is very popular among tourists and yet only very few locals have actually experienced it. A lot of environmentalists may be against it, every Cebuano should take advantage while it exists. It’s a unique kind of experience in our province. Swimming with the whale sharks and taking selfies with them might be a challenge, but surely it is fun.
