We had planned to visit Miravilla Seafood Restaurant since two years ago as someone recommended that we visit it for the best panga ng tuna. Well, Ali got dizzy and kept throwing up on the way to Chocolate Hills so that plan went poof.

The Cambagat Cave is a 5-minute walk away from the Panglao Island Nature Resort lobby and is located inside the resort itself. You can request any of the resort staff to accompany you there -- from about 8am to 6pm, if I remember correctly.

Packages at Panglao Island Nature Resort come with buffet breakfasts and dinners, particularly if resort occupancy is high. We arrived in Bohol on a Saturday morning and since we were in no mood to go around before we could fix our stuff, we decided to have lunch at the resort as well.
