(SPOT.ph) Anyone who went through primary school in the Philippines knows a thing or two about Bohol’s Chocolate Hills. We were taught by our Sibika teachers that these grassy mounds turn brown during the dry season, thus the name. But Bohol in Central Visayas is more than that! The island paradise in Central Luzon also boasts a number of white-sand beaches, the very unique tarsier, the most beautiful coral reefs, and more.
If you're looking to visit Bohol Island soon, there are a few health protocols and travel requirements that you need.
