Is Natura Vista a Beach Front Resort?

No, it isn’t. The place is very near two beaches - the San Pedro Public Beach and the private beach of Panglao Island Nature Resort and Spa.  The San Pedro Public Beach is only a minute walk away. This is a raw, undeveloped public beach which is a boat docking station to the local fishermen. 

These several public beaches may at first look small but pack your water shoes or beach booties and walk further along the shoreline to discover hidden sanctuaries, exciting beach coves, and amazing colored rock formations that are not yet known to the tourists!   

Right beside that is the Panglao Island Nature Resort and Spa, which is one of the most luxurious resorts in Bohol. You can enjoy their world-class resort amenities which include the private beach, infinity pool, jacuzzi, natural cave, man-made island, diving and other water sports facilities. 


For a more exotic swimming experience, you may also hike a little further to the Hinagdanan Cave - a naturally lighted cavern with an underground lagoon.
