Siquijor TravelSeries : Salagdoong Beach



Salagdoong  Beach in Maria, Siquijor is good for thrill-seekers and daredevils.  A cliff-jumping site located at one of the cliffs were manned by the local police and lifeguards to ensure safety of the tourists.  There's also a man-made slide on the other side of the developed cliff.



 The water is surprisingly clear, you could even see what's underneath.



Dare to jump? 



It has a concrete diving board  and tourists can plunge their way in at 30ft!
Mark not just  went down once but three times!



On the other side of the cliff has a spot overlooking the Maria bay. I was thankful that day was scorching hot and the blue skies made a great reflection on the ocean.  It was perfect, the scenery was just perfect.



Salagdoong Beach Resort has rooms to check-in, restaurants and  open cottages for tourists.  This place is ideal for family gatherings and weekend get-away with friends. Or simply for travelers like us who were curious with Siquijor Island. 


Amazing, isn't it? 



A man-made forest of molave trees are developed on the way to Salagdoong  Beach.  Molave trees are known to be one of the trees where fireflies harbored centuries ago (and even today) which gives an eerie glow of fire at night by the Spaniards who discovered the island. It is best that this must be preserved and maintained for the future generations.
