Get High in Cebu City

Last July, I along with dive buddies Ate Claudia Artazo of Cagayan de Oro and Michael Correa of Calamba City, had a chance to dive the waters of Moalboal and visit the Kawasan Falls in the neighboring town of Badian, Cebu Province. It was a fun  filled weekend. The great underwater scenery of Moalboal complements the natural water massage we experienced while riding the bamboo raft in Kawasan Falls. But of course these are totally different stories.

So after our awesome side trip in Badian and the unforgettable dives in Moalboal, we went back to Cebu City to try its latest adventure hot spot – the Sky Experience Adventure , a total contrast of the underwater adventure we had in Moalboal.
