Bohol is a province of the Philippines located in the Central Visayas region, and Magic Oceans Dive Resort, situated in Anda on the island’s east coast, occupies a privileged position within this beautiful and verdant destination. Often described as the “Jewel of Bohol”, the area remains peaceful and largely untouched, offering stretches of white-sand coastline that provide a glimpse of the natural beauty to come. The resort is set within a beachfront paradise framed by a steep rocky backdrop, lush jungle, and a tropical fruit nursery, while the surrounding landscape is rich with palm trees, hibiscus, jasmine, and an array of vibrant tropical flowers.
The resort features 16 spacious bungalows, each designed to maximise comfort and relaxation, with large balconies offering panoramic views of the tropical surroundings. Guests are able to unwind in private seating areas while enjoying the tranquil atmosphere. Inside, the bungalows are furnished in a native style and include a king-size bed, wardrobe with safe, desk, fully stocked minibar, and tea and coffee making facilities. Bathrooms are equipped with a powerful shower, bath, pool towels, toiletries, and a hairdryer. All accommodation is air-conditioned and includes complimentary unlimited mineral water, WiFi, and access to an on-site laundry service.
Magic Oceans Dive Resort offers a restaurant and bar serving a relaxed selection of meals and refreshments, alongside a swimming pool that is ideal for both dive training and leisure. For added relaxation, guests may enjoy treatments at the on-site spa, which features a serene Japanese-inspired garden setting, air-conditioned massage suites, a hand and foot spa offering manicures and pedicures, and a yoga terrace where regular classes and practice sessions are held.
The resort is also home to a stunning house reef with direct access from the dive centre, making it ideal for both divers and snorkellers. While the region is renowned for its extensive network of dive sites along the Anda coastline, it also offers a wide variety of land-based experiences. Highlights include excursions to the iconic Chocolate Hills, where visitors may climb 200 steps to admire panoramic views of more than 1,200 conical hills spread across 50 square kilometres. The Philippine Tarsier and Wildlife Sanctuary offers the opportunity to observe one of the world’s smallest and most endangered primates in its protected natural habitat.
For more adventurous experiences, guests can snorkel with turtles at Turtle Reef or enjoy adrenaline activities such as the tree-top zip line and cable car at Loboc Ecotourism Adventure Park. A visit to Can-Umantad Waterfalls offers a scenic end to the day, often combined with a firefly-watching experience and dinner aboard a floating restaurant, where guests can witness the natural glow of fireflies as night falls.
