This is our top five of Cebu Island, Philippines.
這是菲律賓宿霧島的前五名景點。
5. Osmenja Peak
五、奧斯曼納山
You can reach Osmenja Peak by what the locals call a Habal-Habal, a motorcycle that fits up to four people. After paying a very low entrance fee, it took us a 30 minutes' hike to get to the top. Suddenly, we didn't feel like we're in a tropical country anymore but rather somewhere in the Alps. We were greeted by flourishing green nature and a spectacular view. You truly feel on top of the world.
你可以搭乘當地人稱作 Habal-Habal 的摩托車抵達奧斯曼納山，這種摩托車最多可以載四個人。只需付非常便宜的入山費，再走三十分鐘，就能爬到山頂。突然間，我們感覺自己不是在熱帶國家，更像是站在阿爾卑斯山上。迎接我們的是綠意盎然的大自然與令人讚嘆的景致。你真的會覺得自己站在世界最頂端。
4. Kawasan Falls
四、卡瓦森瀑布
Kawasan Falls is easily the most beautiful waterfall I have ever been to. The water has an amazing turquoise blue color, and we enjoyed the refreshing jump into the chilling water after a long day in the sun. There can be quite a few tourists at times, but that's nothing that the beauty of Kawasan Falls cannot make up for.
卡瓦森瀑布是我去過最美的瀑布。流水是清澈漂亮的藍綠色，經過一天的日曬之後，我們一躍而下，享受跳進冰涼湖水的沁涼之感。這裡有時候會有滿多遊客，但卡瓦森瀑布的美絕對能彌補這個缺憾。
3. Moalboal
三、墨寶
Moalboal's well-known for its marvelous diving spots and huge sardine swarms. And indeed, as soon as we entered the crystal clear water at Panagsama Beach, we were greeted by a thousands of sardines. We even found a gentle turtle and enjoyed swimming along it.
墨寶的最出名的就是絕佳跳水點和沙丁魚風暴。沒錯，我們一潛入帕格納薩瑪海灘清澈的海水中，就有上千隻沙丁魚迎接我們。我們還遇到一隻溫柔的海龜，與牠一起悠游。
A friendly local woman surprised us by offering us a bucket full of sea urchins. They were not too bad, actually, especially if you combine it with vinegar—that's what I was told at least.
一名友善的當地婦人還給了我們驚喜－－一桶滿滿的海膽。說實在，吃起來還不差，特別是加醋一起吃會更具風味－－至少她是這麼告訴我的。
Beside sardines, we saw a variety of other fish, including some curious clownfish and of course, beautiful coral formations. If you want to see coral reefs, turtles, and thousands of fish, Moalboal is the place to go. With hostel prices as low as four U.S. dollars a night and cheap transportation, it is also very affordable.
除了沙丁魚，我們還看到各種不同的魚，有好奇的小丑魚，當然還有美麗的珊瑚礁。如果你想欣賞珊瑚礁、海龜和上千魚群，墨寶絕對是必去之點。住宿每晚僅需四美元，交通也便宜，整趟行程絕對是能負擔得起的。
2. Siquijor
二、錫基霍爾
Actually, Siquijor isn't part of Cebu. But since the island is located only a short ferry ride off the southernmost tip of Cebu, it's had to make the cut for this top five. Siquijor, which is most commonly known for the myths of healers and witchcraft surrounding the island, was indeed a magical place, not because of anything paranormal but rather its amazing beauty.
事實上，錫基霍爾並不屬於宿霧市。但這座島嶼距離宿霧最南端只相隔一趟短程航行的距離，
所以把這座島放在前五名景點也不為過。錫基霍爾最為人所知的就是島上巫醫和巫術的傳說，它絕對是座魔法之島，但不是因為什麼超自然現象，而是因為它令人屏息的美。
You can rent motorbikes as low as a few dollars per night to explore the island on your own. It only takes approximately three hours to get around the whole island. Our first stop was at Salagdoong Beach, which is known for its breathtaking shore, and to top it off, there is a jumping spot, where you can jump off a staggering 10-meter cliff straight into paradise.
你可以租摩托車自駕，一個晚上只需幾塊美元，就能自己探索整座島嶼。整座島繞一圈只要三小時。我們第一站是到莎拉德旺海灘，最為人所知的就是美不勝收的岸邊景致，而更厲害的是，有一個跳水崖，你可以從十公尺高的驚人懸崖跳下，直接跳入整座島嶼的天堂。
Siquijor offers some great beaches, snorkeling spots, and a natural foot spa in front of the so-called "century-old tree." Since Siquijor is still relatively remote and unknown to most tourists, you can find some high-class accommodation for a low price. Our hotel, for example, only costs 12 bucks per night and offered an infinity pool and also included breakfast.
錫基霍爾有很多漂亮的海灘、浮潛點，在一棵被稱作「世紀老榕樹」的樹前還有天然的足浴池。因為錫基霍爾相對來說較偏僻，大多數旅客也不知道這個地點，所以你可以用很低廉的價格找到高檔的住宿。舉例來說，我們的旅館一個晚上只要十二美元，有無邊際泳池，還包含早餐。
1. Oslob
一、歐斯陸
Oslob is a small fishing village, which gained a lot of attention for its huge whale sharks. Swimming with those gentle giants can be intimidating at first, but soon you'll find out that it's quite the opposite. Rather than you being threatened, it's the whale shark, who are endangered, and must be treated with great care. There's a huge controversy about swimming with the sharks since they're being fed. So everyone has to decide for themselves if they want to do this activity. However, in my experience, the boats and guides were very careful, and government officials were observing if the rules were obeyed.
歐斯陸是一座小漁村，以巨大的鯨鯊為人所知。與鯨鯊共游剛開始可能會頗嚇人，但很快你就會發現完全不是如此。比起你被鯊魚嚇到，其實鯨鯊更怕你，牠們已經瀕臨絕種，需要被悉心照顧。與鯨鯊共游的行程其實有很大的爭議，因為鯨鯊是由人類餵食的。所以大家必須自己決定要不要進行這項活動。但我的經驗是，船隻和嚮導都非常小心翼翼，政府也會檢視業者是否有遵守規矩。
All in all, swimming with those giants was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, which I will never forget. You really feel small next to those huge creatures. While foreigners have to pay 20 dollars for 40 minutes of swimming, this activity isn't particularly low budget, considering other prices in the Philippines. But in my opinion, definitely worth it.
從各方面來說，與鯨鯊共游真的是一生中難得一次的體驗，我一輩子都不會忘記。在那些巨大生物旁邊，你真的會感覺自己很渺小。但是外國人與鯨鯊共游四十分鐘就需要付二十美元，相較於菲律賓各方面的花費來說，這個活動價錢不低。但我認為絕對值得。
