Firefly Watching

When you get to the mangrove, there is a waiting area that you wait in until they call your number. Each group is split up and you will get your own private guide.

Everyone will need to wear a life vest when you go into the pump boat.

Once the boat starts, it will be pitch-black (so that you can see the fireflies). They stop at 3 different trees – the last one having the most fireflies.

It was a very tranquil experience. The guide even caught some fireflies and put them in Brea’s hands.

It was difficult to get pictures since it was so dark and the fireflies move so fast so we just sat back and enjoyed the view.

Bohol Bee Farm

Our guide took us to Bohol Bee Farm for dinner and the food was pretty good. We shared pizza and some chicken as well as a halo-halo!
