Blue Orchid Resort - Part 1 - Canyoneering at Kawasan Falls

From La Natura in Coron, we flew to Cebu. Where we left our Grandma 🙁, and started... TAXI WARS!(dun, dun, duuuuuuuuuun). All we wanted was a taxi to our accommodation. As we stepped out of the airport and into the taxi rank we were bombarded from all sides by locals keen to get us in their taxis. After we finally decided who to go with, we just had a three and a half hour drive ahead of us.

The Blue Orchid Resort was a little bit out of main Moalboal, it was near the beach. It was very chill and had a nice pool. Unfortunately, the food was not included and wasn't cheap but, it was good. We were in the family room, with two single beds and one queen. The staff were super friendly and helpful. All good vibes.

On our second day there, we went canyoneering at Kawasan Falls! We woke up at 6 in the morning and got a jeepney ride to where we would get kitted out. We all got life-jackets and helmets. To get to our starting point, we rode motorbikes! I held on for my life!😧

After being scared out of my mind by the motorbike ride, we had a 45-minute hike on slippery muddy terrain. I fell over at least once, so did Em. The first jump was only 3 metres but it was the hardest one.

I was the only one who did all the slides and jumps (apart from the 12 metre one, because Mum said I couldn't) Near the end there was a rope swing, where you swung out and let go, falling to your death... Joking, the rope swing was really fun. After two hours of pure fun we had lunch with the falls behind us. This was by far my favourite activity at Moalboal. (More on the others in Part 2).
