Bohol

Bohol has served as a maritime crossroads within the central Philippines since the precolonial era. This island province in the Central Visayas is bordered by the Bohol Sea and is best known for the Chocolate Hills, a vast field of near-conical limestone formations in its interior. The Loboc River runs through tropical lowlands, while Panglao’s limestone coast and offshore reefs extend Bohol’s seaward character. Near Tagbilaran, the Blood Compact site commemorates the 1565 pact traditionally associated with Datu Sikatuna and Spanish expedition leader Miguel López de Legazpi. Bohol is also closely identified with the Philippine tarsier, protected in forest habitat on the island.
