Trip to Olango Island, a budget friendly adventure!

Olang Island is one of the most silent island place I've traveled/visited and it is my first time to travel with my friends/classmates in this silent Island, part of Lapu-Lapu City addressed as Olango Island, Lapu-Lapu City headed toward South East of Cebu Province.

Olango Island and its neighboring islets has a total land area of approximately 1,030 ha (2,500 acres). The island group is divided under the jurisdiction of the city of Lapu-Lapu and the municipality of Cordova. It lies 5 km (3.1 mi) east of Mactan Island and is a major tourist destination in Cebu.[3] It is known for its wildlife sanctuary. The entire area is the first declared Ramsar Wetland Site in the Philippines, as recognized in 1994.

A 30 minute traveling time or less than that, with a budget friendly fare fee of 15 Pesos per person with a discount if your a student with valid School ID and a Senior Citizen also with valid ID of Senior Citizenship, fare fee of 12 pesos per person. Hilton Port near Movenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu to Santa Rosa Port. Based on Google Map.

If you're a foreign tourist and want to travel in this island, here's a 38 minute traveling time direction for you to be guided. From Mactan International Airport to Hilton Port. Based on Google Map.

So Let's Begin!

I'm from a North Bound place in Cebu. On March 24, 2018, Saturday at 7:26 AM in the morning I meet my classmate/friend also from North Bound place, we're just the same place, meet at JMALL Centre Jeepney Terminal and waited my co-classmates to gather for a group travel in one, so me and my classmate/friend (who was the first then i'm the second who came) waited like 1 hour and half for the 2 remaining classmates and start traveling at 9:02 AM by riding a Jeepney direct to Punta Engaño and dropped at Movenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu.
