The above picture is not edited and it was taken originally by me,
same as what I saw with my own eyes.
Yes, the sea color is differentiate with 6 tones of blue from darkest to the lightest blue.
I screamed excitedly and I can't taking off my eyes away from this picture, no, is the fantastic view.

Oh wait, before we get to reach here,
I am gonna to tell you,

How to reach Oslob from Cebu City.
Yes, the sea is taken at Oslob, Blue Water Sumilon
Nice Place Pay for a Price, don't you agree ?

Flight Transfer:
From Malaysia fly to Cebu took 4 hours

Car Transfer:
Cebu Airport to Cebu City took 30 minutes
Cebu City to Oslob took 3 hours 30 minutes

My dear, that's not the final yet, 
If you want to enjoy the view as picture I took,
you should stay at Blue Water Sumilon Resort,
A private island where the sea is fabulously blue blue and blue.

Boat Transfer: 
Oslob to Blue Water Sumilon Island took 15 minutes 

Basically, we cant reach the island on the first day due to the low tide of the sea at the evening. 
Thus, the resort managed a hotel for us at  Cebu City on the first day when we landed. 
( We supposing to stay at the island on the first day and realized we couldn't reach on first day after we have paid) 

For the compensation of the first day stay, the resort has include:
Cebu City 5 star Hotel Suite Room
Car Transfer from airport to city hotel
Car Transfer from city hotel to Oslob 
Provide Dinner and Breakfast 


First Day in Cebu City

Upon reaching Cebu Mactan Airport,  we were picked up by their local driver which is arranged by the hotel management as mentioned above.
The arrangement is good as the driver didn't pick up anyone else except us at the airport
(at Boracay, the driver waited the car to be occupied full before start the journey)

30 mins distance to reach the city of Cebu, a city which is not develop yet
The bus, the shops , the road and the facilities at here seems like you were back to 1990's.

We reached the hotel in the evening and we went out for a walk before we had out dinner.
The hotel receptionist reminded us to be extra alert and be careful on your belongings.
Once I stepped out from the hotel, I realized that why she has to remind us.

The place is dirty along the road, the vehicles and motors were busying on the road, making noise and air pollution. The people were looking at you and your attire, feeling uneasy under that circumstances by hugging your belongings close to your chest. They sit on the floor outside the shops laughing and talking loudly, ignoring the passerby that passing in front of them.



Back to the hotel for our dinner and this is how their vegetarian set was.

Appetizer- Potato soup. 

Main course- Salad

Dessert- Philippine local pudding. 

The taste of the food was average but I was stunned when I realized the salad was my main course of the day. Anyway, the pudding is love.

Second Day in Cebu

The morning breakfast of the hotel inspired me to eat more as I can since after yesterday night incident, I worried my dinner for second day is salad again so I decided to eat full for morning breakfast since their breakfast taste awesome. LOL

It was 6am in the morning and the sky was totally bright.
It was super different with the sky in Malaysia.  

Okay, checking out and heading to the beach after my egg-for-life breakfast.

 Grab a chance to take a picture before the others get up to the car
Okay, the whole journey took 3 hours and 30 minutes and I was sleeping like a pig
since I woke up at 6am today for the lovely breakfast.

After 2 hours and 30 minutes of journey,
I can see the blue color of nature connecting from the sky to the sea.
For the next 1 hour of journey, the blue sea will be next to you along the road.

We did not stay in Oslob as mentioned above,
we stay on an private island, BLUE WATER SUMILON ISLAND
The driver brought us to the company jetty and we were served like a king.
We were served with welcome drinks and waited in an air-conditioner room with a TV showing the rules and activities on that island. They will called us to open our luggage for checking purpose to make sure we did not bring any food and snack to the island. But in fact, they checked one of our bags and the maggi cups were stored in another luggage which were not checked. Oops.
I was lucky enough. 


I cant wait to take picture with the blue even though I am going to a more bluish sea.
The blue color is so nice that is different  from dark blue to light blue.

The boat has a schedule time on each day and here we go !

Okay, I think I should stop here and going to post for next post soon.
Stay tuned for my next post about the super blue sea island.
