Day Trips in Cebu

Some places listed below may require you to take an early bus/boat to be able to make the most out of your day trip, so you can be back before dark. 

• Danao
• Two hours away.
• Catmon
• Two and a half hours away.
• Camotes
• Two hours or so total travel time (one-way). Take an early boat out! 
• Toledo
• About an hour or so away.
• Barili
• About an hour and a half away.
• Badian 
• Three hours away. Take an early bus so you can come back earlier and wait for a bus around three or four pm. Most buses after five are full. 
• Dalaguete
• Three hours away (Osmena Peak). Don't necessarily have to be out early, since the climb is also pretty easy. If you want to watch the sunset, the only downside is the buses being full, traveling back to the city. You might have to stand halfway through. But hey, it's worth it. Sunset up there is beautiful!
• Boljoon
• About three hours away. You can also cross to Oslob to see Tumalog falls. 
• Oslob 
• Three to four hours away. You may need to take an early bus, say three or four am so you can watch the whale sharks. They close around 12 noon. 
• Bohol
• Yes, you can! It's a two hour ferry. Take the first one out the city, around five or six am. You can still see some of the highlights of the island in just a day.
