Tucked on top of a coral rock in Villanueva, Camoboan, Tabogon, Cebu is a perfect diving site that offers an intimate embrace of nature. The Sea Turtle Lagoon Resort has a rich marine sanctuary located on the northeast coasts of Cebu. It is a perfect place to relax with the sea and sky meeting on the horizon. The resort got its name from the sea turtles that frequent in the area while the whole area is composed of interesting rock formations and tropical greens that add a homey feeling to the guests.

Nonetheless, the area is also a great place to unleash the wild spirit in you by experiencing some of the activities offered by the resort like snorkeling, cliffjumping, island hopping to Capitancillo Islet, and going forth on cultural immersion to the neighboring locals. The four-hour ride to Tabogon may be a little tiring, but rest assured it would be worthwhile.
