After our two-day (Day 7-8) adventure with the whale sharks in Southern Cebu, and our encounter with the turtles and the sandbar in the province of Negros, we continued our adventure (Day 9-10) to Siquijor Island, located in the Central Visayas region of the Philippines.

What are the Best Accommodations in Siquijor Island?
Despite being a small island, Siquijor does not fall short in providing tourists with an amazing experience. No matter what budget or preferences you may have, Siquijor has one for you.
Where is the Best Resto Bar in Siquijor Island?
We decided to have pizza for dinner and went to Dagsa, a great resto bar decorated in bamboo-style. The pizza was made in a wood-fired oven and had its own very unique style. The atmosphere was great, with a reggae band playing live music. Tipping in the restaurants in the Philippines is increasingly common especially when they provide a good service.

Day 11: How do we get from Siquijor to Dumaguete by Ferry?
3 March:
It was a new day (Day 11) for adventure and fun. We left early for the Port of Larena in Siquijor in Central Visayas to go back to Dumaguete. At last, we caught the Oceanjet speed ferry in the early morning, and took an approximately 50-minute ferry ride to reach Dumaguete on Negros. Fortunately, the trip was smooth and we did not have any problems this time. Aside from Oceanjet, there are also other ferry options to choose from based on your preference.
Upon arrival in Dumaguete, we immediately looked for a good place to have breakfast in the city proper. By chance, we found Le Chalet, a Swiss Restaurant that is conveniently located on Rizal Boulevard, Dumaguete City. We were served with Swiss “Zmorge,” a breakfast with Rösti, bacon, ham, and fried eggs.
It was a great breakfast in a wonderful restaurant. This restaurant also serves Swiss chocolate, Emmi cheese, and Swiss Thomy mustard (all original Swiss products).
