Photos of Alona Beach, Bohol

A few pictures in the town of Alona Beach, Bohol, Philippines. We spent 3.5 days in this little town and had a great time with the friendly locals and the other divers.

We flew from Manila on Friday the 19th, it was a bit of a bad start due to the taxi service not being at the airport to pick us up. After a 3 hour wait we were collected and delievered to our cabin, at l'Eléphant Bleu.

The confusion was caused by the owner of the Dive Center we booked with going on holiday and not informing his staff or cabins of our booking. We decided not to dive with the company and was happy to find GoScuba with whom we did all our diving with on Bohol.
