3 Reasons Why We Adore Alona Beach in Panglao

Alona Beach in Panglao, Bohol never goes out of season. Lush greens hovering above crystal-clear, azure green waters and powdery white sand can calm any restless wanderer. Its sand may not be as fine as that in Boracay; but, the island offers a much more serene hideaway, almost free of litter and annoying touts.

Gorgeous Views

Since the rise of social media, it’s beyond unthinkable to not prioritize selfies and famfies over anything else! Alona Beach rose to the occasion by providing the #fambam with striking photos throughout our stay.

Hubby Bala and Bebe Tutapel braved the sun’s scorching heat just to capture this “golden” moment.

Peaceful Hideaway

Boracay’s electrifying energy may have awakened the #fambam’s fun-loving side months before; but, Bohol’s laid-back nature gave us a contrasting dose of peace and serenity. There weren’t many visitors during our stay which somehow made us feel that we had the island all to ourselves.

Refreshing Waters

Nobel Prize-winning writer Toni Morrison once said…

“All water has a perfect memory and is forever trying to get back to where it was.”

Indeed, Panglao’s waters left the #fambam with a treasure trove of memories that will keep our Bohol escapade alive in years to come.

Water Fun with the #Fambam!
