Comments

  • This is my town of Panglao, Bohol. Our patron saint is one of the venerable fathers of the Catholic Church: St. Augustine, the Bishop of Hippo. In our town, we boast of the great dive site which is the Balicasag Island. Of course, you must visit the Shell Museum of Mr. Quirino Hora, a world renown malacologist in the area, right in the heart of Sitio Bontod, Poblacion. He is more than happy to see and explain to you the origins of his shell collections.
