The most famous tourist attraction of Bohol boasts 1,268 cone-shaped hills. The hills are spread over an area of 50 square kilometers and vary in size from 30 meters to 120 meters in height. There are two areas to visit to get a good look at the hills. These are at the Chocolate Hills Complex in Carmen town, and at the Sagbayan Peak.

The Philippine Tarsier (Tarsius syrichta) is one of the smallest primates in the world. Most active at night, their diet consists of insects. The animal is no longer than a grown man's hand.

Loboc River and its serene waters are best appreciated with a fascinating ride on motorized pump boats adorned with buntings and native crafts. The boat ride usually starts at the docking area near the historic Loboc Church, moving along palm-fringed banks, lush inland vegetation, and pastoral scenes of quiet villages. The ride ends near the Tontonan waterfalls with cascading water that provides a pleasant bathing session.
