HOW Can It Be That BEAUTIFUL?? Snorkeling in SANCTUARY! Sumilon Island, Philippines
We loved our time in Oslob Cebu. After swimming with whale sharks, we took a boat out to Sumilon Island. It was absolutely stunning. The water was some of the clearest water we have ever seen. We captured beautiful footage with our cameras, GoPros, and Drone.
The Island is about 2 1/2 kilometers from the mainland, and sits on a coral reef with absolute crystal-clear water. We had fun climbing up the makeshift walkway and staircase to make our way over the the sandbar. Since it was high tide, the sand bar was covered with water. We decided to snorkeling, and it was awesome.
The coral reef at first seemed unimpressive, but the further we went, the more fish and coral there was. We saw some amazing things: clown fish, angel fish, and even a halibut. A couple of fish we had never seen before, so it was fun to discover those. Our guide was great and taught the kids how to blow perfect rings in the water. Sam mastered it did a beautiful ring for us. Enjoy this adventure with us with the unbelievable footage caught from above and below the surface of the water.

Great to see tourists spreading out across the country and not just concentrating on the popular spots.
Philippines is the place for your kids. They like swimming and snorkeling. So many islands to explore for them.
The colour of that water is a Wow. Such beauty of nature❤️
Wow... Our country the 🇵🇭, is so blessed with all these beautiful beaches, mountains, lush of greenery. Thanks for visiting the Philippines guys❤️❤️❤️
Wow that’s abundant of fish and corals. The local govt should protect this beautiful sanctuary.
Truth: Many shore reefs/cirals are broken or destroyed by tourists who walk and step on them OR if in deeper waters, caused by fishermen dynamit fishing, although that is highky illegal now. It takes years for coral to grow so its best to have reef sanctuaries.

Panglao and Pamilacan islands in Bohol and Mantigue island in Camiguin have fantastic reefs. You don't need to scubadive to see them.

No, not in Sumilon, not in Cebu; stop your nonsense. Ridiculous. Dynamite fishing? I doubt it. That area is a sanctuary and highly protected, and the island is privately owned by Blue Water Resort. Some corals were destroyed in the area due to the super typhoon Odette in December 2021.
I remember your first snorkeling videos and thought it was beautiful - but these are even better! - Dang, it's beautiful!
The beach is very beautiful and the water is good for snorkelling, have a nice day ❤❤❤
Cebu is the country’s #1 most visited tourist destination, and for good reason. It is unrivaled in offering the widest range of things to do and attractions. Cebu is like the “Jack of all trades” among tourist spots in the Philippines. You can enjoy scenic natural sites (waterfalls, beaches, mountain views, etc.), have exciting wildlife encounters, join a colonial heritage tour, shop at some of the World’s largest malls; world-class hotels and resorts; indulge yourself in local food including the prized Cebu Lechon! You can do all of these easily while staying at a luxury resort in Mactan Island, centrally located hotel/airbnb in the city, or a peaceful beachfront resort in the countryside. Your choice! Cebu lives up to its moniker as "The Gateway to a Thousand Journeys." There isn't a shortage of explorations to do in Cebu. Cebu offers a unique travel experience as it is a place where the city and paradise meet. Cebu the one and only The Queen City of the South and of the Philippines. The First and the Oldest city in the Philippines. The First Capital of the Philippines. Cebu City is the Cradle of Christianity in Asia. The Tourism capital of the Philippines. The gem of Southeast Asia.
Snorkelling at Sumilon Island never looked so good. Who would have thought this could be one of my favorite vlogs of the Backham Family.
It's good to have a tour guide specially underwater adventures. This guyz are more experiences and familiar with the area...just enjoy your time as a family coz this kinda experience will only happened together with our family...specially when they still young and kids enjoy it with their parents! 😊❤
Truly incredible experience for your kids and your whole family
It's so refreshing to see families traveling my country.
I Have been to different parts of the Philippines and i can say that sumilon has the bluest water I Have ever seen.
The Philippines has 7,641 naturaL exotic beauty of the isLands and the Philippine sea has the World's most diverse and rich in marine ecosystem and this country is Located in the region called the "CoraL Triangle"an area of exceptionaL importance as it's recognized as the GLobal Center for Marine Biodiversity-Wikipedia and ONEOCEAN INFO.

reminds me pf the mccallister family. amazing family, kids are well loved and raised the right way. exposed to different culture. will grow up to be great human beings.
Maybe they have guide so that they can watched you not damaging the corals.Coz a lot of corals spots in the Philippines got ruined or destroyed by the tourists.They step on it and tried to take some corals as souvenirs.
surprised at the quality of the corals despite being visited by a lot of people, the color of the water looks unreal!!!

Hi the guides are probably there to protect the corals and you of course. Sumilon is a marine sanctuary. I used to go there before and saw the healthy corals and have seen how they have deteriorated, haven't been there recently and hopefully measures have been done to protect it. In some cases marine sactuaries are closed off to tourism to let the area heal.
Grace is so cute... Great video your having fun! 😍😍
Thank You for sharing your experience diffenitly like it

FYI, guys Sumilon island is a private island owned by Blue Water resort, you can still visit Sumilon island for a minimal fee on an island tour or join a group island tour. Although it's a private island, tourists are allowed to visit and spend time enjoying the popular surreal white sandbar, swimming, snorkeling, diving, but wandering on the island is limited or prohibited unless you book and stay in their beautiful resort. Snorkeling is recommended. Sumilon Island is a sanctuary for marine life in Oslob, Cebu. Here, you will find underwater species in their natural habitat, including blacktip sharks. The dive sites here are bursting with corals and tropical underwater species.
