Here are the top spots that you can visit in Siquijor and you can visit them all in one day!
1. Cambugahay Falls – best Siquijor tourist attraction
A stunning waterfall divided into three levels all including an enormous pool. The main pool has a couple of rope swings that will make it even more fun to spend some hours here.
2. Paliton – Best Siquijor Beach
The most beautiful beach on Siquijor is called Paliton Beach. It is well known among travelers and locals but doesn’t get too crowded beside the weekends. The white sand beach, clear water with starfish, and palm trees make it a great place to spend the afternoon and watch the sunset. Paliton Beach is located very close to San Juan town.

3. Butterfly Sanctuary Siquijor
One of the most surprising Siquijor tourist attractions is the Butterfly Sanctuary in the center of the island. Hop on a motorbike and drive a stunning route up the hills. The butterfly park is a sanctuary started by a man who weekly releases butterflies from his garden. Due to new buildings and deforestation, less butterflies can be found in the wild.
Visit his garden with huge, beautifully colored butterflies, drink coconut and help the owner to maintain his project.
4. Lugnason Falls
Different from Cambugahay Falls, the Luganson Waterfall is hidden and not on every traveler’s list of things to do in Siquijor. A beautiful 5-minute hike down the jungle hill brings you to a silky blue watered waterfall.
5. Tubod Beach – Relaxing thing to do on Siquijor
Want to spend time on the beach or cool down in the sea? Tubod is a long, calm sunbathing beach in front of the Coco Grove Resort. There is a marine sanctuary in front but we don’t recommend swimming here. The corals are too close to you, no matter if it’s high or low-tide. We have seen people standing up or hitting the corals and that shouldn’t be the case!
6. Salagdoong Cliff Jump
Drive down the scenic coastline on Siquijor towards Salagdoong Beach Resort. Salagdoong cliff jump point is located on top of a rock reaching a height of 10 meters and is a cool thing to do on Siquijor.
7. Churches
Siquijor is home to many beautiful old churches. While arriving in Siquijor town by ferry you immediately notice the old church called the San Isidro Labrador church. Drive around the island and you will see a new one in every town. Some are open to enter and see from the inside.
8. Old Enchanted Balete Tree
The 400-year-old Balete Tree is a popular quick stop on your way to one of the other Siquijor tourist attractions. At the base of a tree is a freshwater base and the story goes that the tree is enchanted. Tours are offered to this location, we wouldn’t say that’s worth you money.
9. Climb to the viewpoint
On your way to the butterfly park make sure to stop at a sign that says ‘Quesol Mountain View’. It’s a 5-minute walk up a hill that gives you a great view of the area.
