Limasawa Island

  • Site of the celebration of the First Christian Mass in the Orient when Ferdinand Magellan came in 1521; historical and cultural viewing of the Magellan Shrine/Marker. It is also a diver’s paradise. It boasts of magnificent walls and sheer drop-offs decorated with a variety of lovely fan corals which never fails to awe even the most traveled and experienced diver. Best time to visit the island: March to early June / October to December. Trips can be arranged through the Southern Leyte Governor’s Office; passenger pumpboats are available at the Padre Burgos wharf.
