This banana-shaped island has accessibility going for it – international flights from Asian hubs such as Hong Kong and Singapore fly right into the Visayas' largest city, Cebu City. Near the airport on Mactan Island you'll find a variety of high-end, family-oriented resorts. The beaches on Mactan are nothing special, so hire a boat to take you out to islands in the Bohol Strait, where ample quantities of white sand grace the numerous beaches.
If you have more time, travel three hours by car to the northern tip of the island, where pump boats make the 10-minute trip to dreamy Malapascua Island, home to blinding-white Bounty Beach and, for scuba divers, thresher sharks. Alternatively, drive southwest to the diving town of Moalboal, which offers the rare chance to swim just offshore with giant schools of sardines.
