Location
The public market is the place to try local snacks, and Rizal Boulevard's seafront is a short walk east.
Dumaguete is a laid-back university city, home to Silliman University, founded in 1901, and its leafy campus is a pleasant walk. In the evening, Rizal Boulevard's promenade fills with families, food carts and people watching the boats.
Day trips are a big draw: snorkel with sea turtles at Apo Island, dive the reefs off Dauin, or head up to the crater lakes of Balinsasayao and Danao. Fast ferries to Siquijor leave from the port, a short tricycle ride away.
