MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Some summer trips are packed with plans. Others, with moments meant to be savored. In Siquijor, days move a little slower, the sea shines a little brighter, and the warmth of the sunlight makes every moment feel worth it.
This season, getting to the island can be just as simple. Travelers can now fly direct to Siquijor from Clark and Cebu with Sunlight Air, making it easier to trade busy city days for sun, sand, and sea. With fewer stops and transfers, the journey becomes part of the escape.
Skip the stop, head straight to Siquijor
For years, visiting Siquijor from the metro meant taking a plane followed by a ferry to reach the island. While scenic, it often required extra time and planning. Now, with direct access from Cebu, travelers can skip the extra steps and spend more time where it matters, right by the shore.
