Exploring Dumaguete and Valencia in Negros Oriental, Philippines: Dave and Kim visit Casaroro Falls, the sulphur springs, and the Red Rock Hot Springs, all recommended for visitors, plus a stop at Wellbeach Dive Resort. A scenic day trip guide south of Dumaguete.
South from Dumaguete
The day starts at the family's bed and breakfast in Dumaguete and heads south toward the town of Valencia in Negros Oriental, with a stop to check out Wellbeach Dive Resort, where they will be staying for a few days. It sets up the dive chapters of the trip while exploring the highlands behind the coast.
Casaroro Falls
Casaroro Falls is the headline natural attraction near Valencia, a dramatic waterfall tucked into the hills that rewards the effort of getting there. Dave and Kim show the journey and the falls themselves, giving viewers a clear idea of why this spot tops most Dumaguete area itineraries.
Springs and Hot Pools
The tour continues to the sulphur springs and the Red Rock Hot Springs, geothermal spots the couple recommends for any visitor to the area. Together with the falls, they make an easy, varied day trip from Dumaguete that mixes scenery, relaxation, and a little adventure in the Philippine highlands, and a nice balance to the dive days that come later in the series. Renting a scooter or hiring a driver for the day makes reaching the falls and springs straightforward.
