Lamanok Island dubbed as Bohol’s “cradle of civilization” the mystical place of Lamanoc (also spelled as Lamanok) in Anda, Bohol is an island rich in beauty and heritage. The Lamanoc Mystic Island Tour provides tourists with a glimpse of weathered limestone formations, red rock shelters, ancient burial caves, and secluded white beaches, which is accessible via the main town of Anda. Reached by a short boat ride through mangroves, the island combines history, nature, and a slightly mystical atmosphere that makes the visit feel both educational and unforgettable.
Quinale Beach is a white sand beach with clear waters located in Anda, a small town on the Bohol island. Its powdery white sand is often compared to those of Boracay, El Nido, and Puerto Galera. It has gained popularity over the recent years yet is still not as well-known as other Bohol beaches like Alona and Dumaluan maintaining its serene and tranquil atmosphere. This public beach is owned by the local government and can be enjoyed freely by tourists.
Cadapdapan Rice Terraces discover the breathtaking panoramic view of the terraces and witness the dance of every weed at the touch of the wind. A peaceful hillside place where hand-shaped paddies, mountain views, and traditional farming life come together in one beautifully simple landscape. Often paired with nearby Can-Umantad Falls, it’s one of East Bohol’s most rewarding countryside stops. Make sure to savor the refreshing scent of air and cherish every minute of it that will surely stay in your core memory.
Can-umantad Falls is the tallest waterfall in Bohol located at Brgy Cadapdapan, approximately 14-15 kms from Brgy Poblacion Can-umantad, this natural wonder captivates visitors with its impressive 60-foot cascade—its name derived from the local term “can-uman,” meaning sixty (60).
