The stunning Philippine island of Bohol is a natural wonder, perfectly shielded from the vicious weather that blights many of the other nearby islands by being shielded on all sides, and so able to develop undisturbed into a perfect (if slightly tourist-ridden), picturesque centre of scuba diving, sailing and animal watching.
The incredible Chocolate Hills -- arguably Bohol's biggest draw -- poke like giant molehills through the forest canopies, more than 1,000 of them dominating a surreal skyline on what - legend has it - is a district formed by ancient giants bombarding each other with handfuls of sand.
It is believed to be an island which used to be submerged in water, which explains why there are a number of underground caves in this area. A popular cave to go to is the Hinagdanan caves in Panglao island.
Of course, being a tropical island, there's plenty in the way of beaches and water-based adventures, too. Scuba diving -- or at least snorkeling -- here is practically essential, and all takes place off rustic boats floating near coral-strewn, white sand beaches. The more adventurous can indulge in dolphin or whale watching, while incredible seashells (be careful of customs restrictions -- and never take anything live) sprinkle the beach.
All in all, Bohol is a slightly less obvious island destination than the typical Philippines holiday, and -- with its local take on culture and laid back vibe -- all the better for it.
