  • Tourist Attractions North of Cebu: Sights to See in Bogo City

By: OC Staff , September 07 2018

bogo cebu tourist spot

Bogo is located in the Northeastern part of Cebu. It consists of 29 Barangays and is a 6th city income class.

Bogo used to be a part of Municipality of Daanbantayan. It later became a town in January 1850. Fr. Jaime Micalot was the first priest in Bogo, as assigned by the Bishop of Cebu. He also decreed that St. Vincent Ferrer be the town's patron. On June 16, 2007 the town was declared officially a city.

I must say that Bogo City has one of the most informative websites out of Cebu's cities, municipalities and towns. From Citizen's Charter, to services (permits), to contact details and recreation centers, they have it all. Great job, Bogo City! 

Check out their website here: http://cityofbogocebu.gov.ph/

The name of bogo was derived from the Bogo tree that stood in its shores. Under the shade of the tree, a booming trade went on between sailors and the locals.

If you happen to be in Bogo, these are the spots that you should not miss.

Capitancillo Islet

bogo cebu tourist spot

Capitancillo Island is a historical site. It is a 6-hectare land, a protected marine sanctuary and uninhabited. It was built in 1905 and the steel tower was built in the 1950s. It has a height of 83 ft. (25m) and flashes 3 white lights every 10 seconds.

The Ormoc Shoal, Nuñez Shoal and the Southwest wall of Capitancillo serve as diving sites. You can ride a motor boat from Polambato Port, Nailon Wharf, Marangog Cove or Odlot Hideaway as a jumping off point to the island in less than an hour.

Legend has it that there was once a Captain Basillo (a captain of a Spanish trading vessel) who insulted the local Datu named Bugtopasan. So, Datu Bugtopasan cursed and put a spell on him. Captain Basillo and his vessel transformed into an island. True? Of course not.

Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal

bogo cebu tourist spot

At the Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, you will find the statue of Virgin Mary on the top of the hill of Brgy. La Paz, Bogo City. It’s quite a climb so make sure you’re fit enough to if you prefer to walk. The stairs has 163 steps, so if you’re not up to it, just ride a habal-habal (motorcycle) up the hill.

Their feast day is held every 27th of November.

During the celebration of the Virgin Mary's birthday every 8th of September, a procession from St. Vincent Ferrer church to the Shrine is held, and then the holy mass is conducted afterwards in the chapel (just below the statue of Virgin Mary). There, medals blessed by the priest are sold by vendors. You can also pray or light a candle in the chapel.

Arapal Nature Retreat

bogo cebu tourist spot

Arapal Nature Retreat used to be called as Arapal Children's Home. It was later renamed into Arapal Nature Retreat by Salvador Cariaga who is also the founder of Arapal Christian Camp.

It is located in Brgy. Arapal, Anunag Sur, Bogo City. It offers camping, hiking, and spelunking. You also have the chance to harvest fruits or vegetable (seasonal). And even learn through conference or seminars about organic farming and raising livestock!

They're open from Monday to Friday from 9am-5pm. They’re open on Saturdays only by appointment and are closed every Sunday.

Tel. Numbers:

  • +63 917 123 4295
  • +63 917 784 5916

 You can visit them at www.arapalnatureretreat.com for more information and inquiries.

Bogo Barbeque Plaza

bogo cebu tourist spot

A plaza to chill, hangout and have barbeque? Yes, please!

The Bogo Barbeque Plaza, a much more relaxing version of Larsian, was unveiled last September 29, 2012. All barbeque vendors are provided a place to sell their goods, all in one place. Isn't that amazing? It is located near the pier. The cool breeze from the shore and the smell of grilled barbeque feels perfect!

I have to say, Bogo City is doing a great job.

Travel Guide to Bogo, Cebu

Travel Guide to Bogo, Cebu

The city of Bogo is a fourth class city in the province of Cebu with a population of 82,327 according to the LGU data. It is situated in the northern part of the province, and is 101 kms away from Cebu City , the capital of the province.

The city itself is smaller as compared to Cebu City, however, it offers a range of beautiful places to visit as well, not to mention the neat fields of sugarcane and coconut trees along the way. The first landmark you see upon reaching the area is the Virgin Mary Shrine that overlooks the city. It is located on top of a hill, and is a popular pilgrimage spot for Roman Catholics.

Another historic landmark, and the largest building in town, is the Cebu Roosevelt Memorial College, which can be found in the middle of the city. It is a five-storey structure that houses the largest college population among other colleges here.

Traces of Spanish influences are still prevalent in the plaza, wherein tourists can find a beautiful library and a museum as well as a diesel train engine that hauls sugarcane to the sugar mill just a few kilometers away.

The city also has a huge public market where locals and tourists alike can find a wide array of goods, fresh fruits and vegetables, and native goods. Today, it has two department stores and a fastfood chain. You can also find banks and ATMs peppered around the city.

Finally, it is a home to beautiful resorts that can cater to every tourist’s needs. Indeed, Bogo is a perfect place to experience a laidback atmosphere and a relaxing environment.

Getting There

From Cebu City, head to the North Bus Terminal where buses and vans-for-hire are in abundance. It will take you about 3 hours to reach the city proper, depending on the mode of transportation you choose. The much bigger buses (aircon and non-aircon) have stop-overs so expect a bit of a 10-15 minute delay on your trip. But these are also a perfect time to stretch your feet and grab a few snacks for the rest of the trip. You won’t get bored anyway, since some buses, such as Ceres airconditioned buses, have a free Wi-Fi connection and film-viewing while you are on the road.

When in Bogo, the best way to visit places is by tricycles or motorcycles (habal-habal). You can either hire them for the rest of the day or switch vehicles should you desire.

How to Enjoy Your Stay

Bogo is near the coast so expect to find amazing resorts that are best places to stay for your holiday, such as Nailon Beach Resort. But if you wish to stay near the city proper, there are also inns and pension houses that can cater to your needs, including Northomes Pensione and Nagano.

All in all, Bogo City has everything you will ever need for a truly relaxing escapade, whether alone or with your loved ones. You can visit the famous landmarks during the day and dine and relax in a resort somewhere or a pension house during the night. You can also reach Cebu City easily if you wish to experience the bustling metropolitan.
