A trip to Moalboal that feels like a dream

I've already been to Cebu Mactan and Bohol, so I found Moalboal while looking for a new place~~!!!! A place where I only heard stories about schools of sardines and turtles welcoming me when I went out to the sea!!!! I went there~~^^ I heard that there was a clean accommodation made by a Korean owner, so I asked around and made a reservation and visited. I made a reservation for a guide the day before and went out to the sea... I walked a little bit without getting on the boat and saw a huge school of sardines... and I was surprised to see several turtles appear among them. Since I can swim to some extent, I followed the guide to a slightly deeper place away from the shallow sea where people were crowded... It was nice to be able to leisurely swim with turtles and take videos in a quiet place. The street where supermarkets, restaurants, and pubs are lined up was noisy with the singing coming from each live bar, and the supermarket with Korean signs was selling Korean ramen, cup ramen, snacks, ice cream, etc. My second child was young so I couldn't go deep, which was a shame, but... there were Nemo and his friends in the sea behind the accommodation, so I didn't realize how much time had passed. The road pavement wasn't good for the 3-hour drive from Cebu City to Moalboal, so the kids got motion sickness. However, the 3-hour drive back was okay after I bought motion sickness medicine in Moalboal and gave it to them. There were cockroaches the size of my thumb flying around on the road and bugs that looked like raccoons crawling around, but... it felt like a foreign land like I saw on TV... It was so exotic and great. My middle school daughter said she wouldn't come again, but... My husband and I want to live there for a month. I think I'll go back with my husband next winter^^ #Moalboal #CebuTravel #SeafoodSchool #TurtleSnowKeeling
