Sumilon Island


With over 7,000 islands, there are plenty of beach projects all over the country. The development of the islands, however, may vary in design and aesthetics.

Cebu is one of the most developed locations that cater to both local and foreign tourists thanks to multiple flights and easy accessibility. These factors have prompted Bluewater Sumilon Island Resort (
www.bluewatersumilon.com.ph or email at sumilon@bluewater.com.ph ) to develop their beautiful resort in the island in time for the holidays.

The word Sumilon comes from the word “sumilong”, which means to take refuge, as the island’s caves serve as shelters for fishermen from incoming storms.
The island itself is filled with history and natural attractions. Whether its being surrounded by crystal clear waters with beautiful varying aquamarine hues, snorkeling in the first ever marine sanctuary, and lying on its white sand shifting sandbar, or kayaking at the natural lagoon, swimming with the whale sharks, and even the occasional sighting of black tip sharks, Sumilon has something for everyone!
We love the resort because of the Filipino lifestyle experience with their modern Filipino rooms and the warmest greetings from their fully employed all-Filipino staff.


Sumilon Island is a tiny island of 24 hectares or about 60 acres located near Cebu City and Dumaguete in the southern Philippines. It is known for its crystal-clear waters and white sand beaches. People who travel to Sumilon Island usually do so to go snorkeling, swim and sunbathe on the beaches, and look at nature on the island. You must get there by ferry, which is easiest to do from either Cebu City or Dumaguete.
