Loboc River cruise

Loboc River cruise is one of the must-go-places if you are in Bohol and if you are in a look-out for a unique nature trip. The boat ride costs P400 ( as of Feb 2012, inclusion of entrance fee ), not bad for an hour or so of music (there are local folk singers on-board that serenades the tourists), food (eat-all-you can buffet) and the rustic, simple but breathtaking beauty of nature.



A glimpse of the historic Loboc Church which is considered as the 2nd oldest church in the whole province of Bohol. Unseen, is the Loboc Musem.




This is the mini-pier to jump start the one-of-its-kind cruise/nature trip.




The boat ride starts from a point right in front of the Loboc Church/Loboc museum and ends near the small rapids/waterfalls that the locals simply called "Busay".



You will pass through and shortly dock on another boat w/ an orchestra of local entertainers that showcase the native music of Bohol. 





It is truly an unforgettable experience for people who are used to the bustle and hassle of the city life as you enter and go on an hour or so cruise to this tropical paradise. More than the floating restaurans and the eat-all-you-can buffet, what makes it even more appealing is the magnificent river itself and its surroundings complemented and 'greened' w/ lush fauna of all kinds as a backdraft.
 It really is a fantastic way to know and feel the pure kindness of the Boholanos as you take the whole journey. Taste theVisayan cuisine and their traditional music as well as witness the grandeur and the simplicity of this tropical river/paradise all in just one hour cruise. We were unlucky though at that time because the water appeared brackish because of the heavy rains the previous days but that did not make us less appreciate the raw beauty of the Loboc River.
