Of the hundreds islands in the Philippines, you might have few questions in your mind about why you must include the province of Cebu in your travel itinerary. Well, there are many reasons why you must never skip the province. First is, your travel escapade in this tropical haven will never be complete without taking a glimpse of its fascinating sights and experiencing its unique lifestyle. There are so many things that you will love about Cebu province and so many reasons that makes it popular among tourists, both local and foreigners alike. Among them are its famous tourist sites. From the shores of Mactan to the mountain height resorts, temples and complexes of Cebu, you will certainly never go out of place to visit and enjoy. In Mactan, beautiful white sand beaches with clear blue waters are plenty. Also, diving spots that are boasting gorgeous natural water attractions are seemingly endless and the diving infrastructure in the island is well-developed, considering it close proximity to the international airport.

Another great thing that you will enjoy about the province is, of course, the food. If you love those ripe yellow dried mangoes, the crispy “chicharon” or pork rind, the yummy “danggit” (dried fish usually cooked for breakfast) or the tasty “lechon” (a roasted pig), you can certainly indulge yourself in a gastronomic delight without paying for the high price. The “barangay” (district) of Guadalupe in Cebu is the number one destination of mango lovers. It boasts sweet-tasting mangoes that will surely make your taste buds water. For those who are craving for the yummy “lechon”, Lapu-Lapu is the ultimate destination, boasting long stalls of crispy, tasty “lechon” makers and vendors.
