Cebu & the Visayas
Whale sharks that surface close enough to touch if the guide would only allow it, a canyon you jump into rather than photograph, and enough islands in range that nobody agrees which beach was the best one.
The best time to visit Cebu & the Visayas is Dec–May, when typical daytime highs reach about 30°C (86°F). Local time there is 17:26 (UTC+8).
