That is something we expect to do on a regular basis once we live there full time. For now we plan to visit every couple of years as finances allow.If we can get to Samal next year, I plan on spending a lot more time exploring the island and checking out the different resorts.

If we can get to Samal next year, I plan on spending a lot more time exploring the island and checking out the different resorts.

The thing is, with more people visiting or staying on these beaches, the less appealing it would be due to the addition of things which could just ruin the whole balance.I mean would the beach look better with the addition of a five-star hotel or a shopping mall? I think not.By the way, thanks for the reply. It doesn't always happen that my comments get replied to by the author just because I left a link on the comment. :D It might not be yours technically (LOL) but you get to enjoy it a lot.

Those look like they would be very entertaining. I think I should be able to fit the bat caves and maybe Hagimit Falls into our agenda next time.I don't think I'll have any trouble getting to the White House as often as I like ;-) Hi Ellen – well I don’t know that a bikini contest would be at the top of my list, but it could be fun.

Once in a while some resorts here have this bikini contests. I guess that is one "nightlife" event to attend one of these days. :) Hi Randy, sad to say I havent even tried some of the things you listed.

I've not been to Boracay but I'm very happy with the available beaches and resorts on Samal Island. If we can keep it from becoming too crowded, it will always be a treasure.

Just looking at that photo of the beach on your sidebar makes me want to visit the place. I would have to say that I like your beach better than Boracay which I think is too overrated.
