🇵🇭 Cebu’s Virgin Island & Cliff Jumping 🏝 Bantayan Philippines (2022)

Thanks!

[@MergimVlogsYT]

Damn.. I’m speechless! Thank you so much for your generosity! 🙏☺️

Mga kababayan please help Mergin to road 50,000 please his a good blogger .

[@TheLifeOfJoyVee]

my support for him is I always watch his whole vlog on a daily basis since he vlog here in the Philippines.

[@junglejim4549]

Mergim, the best time to travel to the Philippines and avoid the monsoon season is April and May. July and August are bad because these months are MONSOON season! But at least you are able to enjoy Virgin Island on a smooth day. And if you ever get pricked by SEA URCHINS, use vinegar to wash away what is under your skin. During my time, I was even told by local fishermen to use my own urine and IT worked! Acidity washes away the sea urchin the next day. I was about 9 years old when I got pricked by sea urchins in Cebu decades ago.

[@NeoKrypton21]

My goodness, that island is so so amazing! Amazing white, smooth and powdery sand. Amazing ceystal clear waters. And you almost get to have it exclusively yours, Mergim. Hahahaha. I envy you there. I wish I could have that as well. ❤️❤️❤️

[@ryanmar6380]

by far, one of the best PH vloggers out there

[@musicartandplay5549]

I shared your video to encourage a give and take... Coz I believe you are contributing to our tourism through your vlogs... thank you for exposing even our hard-to-find beauty spots.... God bless you, brother!

[@jasperjavellana4454]

You have the beach all to yourself … what a relaxing experience !!! 👌 WOW 😮 That was an amazing jump !!! You aced it Mergim !!! 👍

[@John-vh3ig]

I must visit Cebu ! Awesome beach paradise.

[@marydexplorer6370]

Nice cliff jumping 👏👏 That's an awesome island..d turquoise water is so impressive!! Keep safe!

[@lionhearted1969]

That jumping platform is unforgettable experience to me because it is where my sunglasses fell off as I forgot to take them off before the jump. I realized only later when something shiny slowly sank to the bottom of the ocean and those were my glasses. Unwilling to lose it, I dove for it and successfully retrieved it in just a single dive that even surprised myself. The life guard said that the water was 12-13 feet deep as it was high tide. I never thought I still could free dive that deep considering that my last deep dive was in the 1990s. I realized it was all God's plan.

Docu-vlogging is back😘

[@evaduberek353]

A stress eliever watching this crystal clear water , white sand and the scenery. Amazing place!

[@bhello99]

always be careful walking barefoot..sometimes theres broken glass on the beach and rusted nails.. take care always mergim..

[@JTCal1000]

you are the great explorer of the Philippines!

[@thenewyorker7624]

What a beautiful place.

[@roanravena9288]

Thank God you're safe Mergim no injuries at all. Lezzzzzgoooo for 50k subscribers! We love you Mergim 😘. Just asked my friends to subscribe to your channel Mergim. You deserve to be promoted to spread Mergim's travel and promote Philippine tourism.

[@eilasorrodag8096]

Bantayan Island is so beautiful the place you always want to visit 🏖️🏝️🇵🇭 enjoy and be safe Mergim watching here in city of cebu♥️♥️♥️

[@perlaaguinaldo]

wow thats so beautiful mergin white sand enjoy your travel there thats so cool. stay safe

[@John-vh3ig]

You should also always carry flip-lops specially you're going to different islands to protect your feet.

[@monapreidiman715]

You make me homesick.. in a good way. Thanks for your blogs!

[@arghentrock]

Amazing jump especially with that drone shot.

[@junjunsilorio5208]

nice. i'm from cebu and i haven't been there in virgin island.😊😊😊 Enjoy your time in Cebu

[@glenng3353]

Fantastic jump mate! Great shot using the drone and camera in hand .. I felt my jewels scrambling up my "you know where" :P Shouldn't you get yourself a Water Shoe if you are doing island hopping and beach explorations? It helps protect you from slippery paths as well as pointy rocks and things.

[@glenng3353]

@@El_.5794 Yeah ... but nowadays water shoes are inexpensive too. Provides more protection, especially against slippery surfaces, which is what it is meant for.

[@nightwing4065]

I love the crystal clear waters. 👍❤💯🇵🇭

[@Silentlowkey]

I was quite nervous when you did the jump. Haha Virgin island is beautiful, been there few years ago.

[@fortuneybiernas5778]

Mergim you're lucky to see all these places. Keep them going! We appreciate your love of our country!

[@richmondroadtv6527]

Thanks for vlogging Bantayan, so beautiful. I wish I can have my holiday there soon. Edwin from London xx

[@bernadetteoneill7014]

Beautiful beach! Well done Mergim. You're the first to explore Virgin island in Batayan amongst vloggers I think. Maybe Camotes island next. Sta safe always. God bless. 👍🏝🏝

[@dancreatortv5359]

nice to visit on virgin island,, amazing drone shots

[@marierocher4422]

Bantayan islands and the rests of islands and islets have pristine beaches as very few tourists visiting. I love it. The islands are practically all for yourself, peaceful, quite with only birds chirping, listening the wind blowing and the waves ripples, rustling of the leaves. I missed those times Mirgem when tourists didn’t know where Philippines is. Enjoy the area before tourism starts building up.

[@silveriver9]

Why do foreigners not like to come here? Actually there is some trash on the beaches and sea but overall its still good. Service is painfully slow in restaurants. Food quality is low.

[@glennkevin9711]

Both been to virgin island in bohol and bantayan I would say I enjoyed my stay more in bantayan's virgin island as you can wander from the island, sleep on the beach under the shade of the trees, plus the cliff jumping, the platform used to be made of bamboos only but it was way way higher than the current platform. It seems they are still constructing it so I think they will be adding more levels. Hoping to get back there soon 🥰

[@cycy274]

Your vlogs are very informative. Great job mergim! 💪

[@markbangcayamanambal]

great documentations

[@khenmedallo1922]

Wow...my goodness,such a wonderfull place we have in sta.fe.bantayan island cebu phippines❤️❤️❤️

[@ceciliaabrilla3841]

Surprised to see this beautiful island . Thanks for your vlog

[@lionhearted1969]

Maybe the boat crew abhorred your plan of getting his company to the jumping platform which he didn't like. They hate walking. During our visit there in March 2021 (when Cebu was first reopened to tourism since the pandemic began in March 2020) our crew of two also told us that we might not be able to do the cliff jumping as it was too far and we might run out of time. We arrived at Virgin Island at about 11:30AM after visiting Hilantagaan Island further south. But when we checked with the sign installed at the trail head, it was not that far so we ventured out to the cliff jumping point ourselves. We met other groups along the way but they told us that it wasn't that far. So we proceeded and true enough it wasn't far as it only took us less than 10 minutes of normal pacing.

[@crissantiago6615]

Thanks for Mergim for sharing your Bantayan experience, This is awesome. Enjoy.

[@marcojojoypon2832]

Wow that s a special trip Sir.

[@michaelmcknight2305]

Kawasan falls did have a higher jump before it got destroyed in the typhoon, I can't remember exactly how high but I did do it and it was scary. I went to Virgin Island about 3 or maybe years ago and it still looks as beautiful now. It really is paradise in the Philippines and I am so envious of you at the moment.

[@alfredobegasa3916]

I've been waiting your vlogs everyday mergim, 👌

[@PaulBrighton]

Thanks. Enjoying your work.

[@amaliahightower]

Mergim...Virgin Island is beautiful. I was watching Eight Miles and they went to Balicasag Island in Bohol. I think it’s worth going. They saw 3 sea turtles. Ingat ka lagi Mergim.

thankyou for exploring the Philippines mergim 👌 buy another glasses mergim 😁

Hello good evening!🌆😊

Almost 50K subs.. Congratulations.

[@julianlora_]

Well done on that jump.

[@HuangHwei]

I've been to Bantayan, Bohol, Boracay, and Palawan but Calaguas Group of Island is the finest and far from the crowd - a long stretch of powdery white sand beach, a pristine crystal-clear waters, a vivid green rolling hills and fresh air.

[@jorgemontecillo3715]

Balabac group of islands is the finest Top 1 Bugsuk island Punta Sebaring, Entalula island elnido palawan, West Nalaut, dumunpalit busuanga palawan, Linapacan islands, Malcapuya Culion/Coron, Matnog sorsogon whitebeach. That list has the most powdery, because it's untouch literally

[@jorgemontecillo3715]

@Love lol balabac still part of palawan. Palawan alone has 1780 islands. Do the math. Clearer than the clearest, bluer than the bluest in any area of the philippines except batanes and caramoan, catanduanes area due to different shades of blue. Whitest and softest sand. Virgin island and unspoiled

[@jorgemontecillo3715]

@Love north palawan busuanga, coron, culion, linapacan, taytay and dumaran has the most pristine water in North Palawan too.

[@jorgemontecillo3715]

@Love balabac is undiscovered

[@lapulapupintado2892]

@@jorgemontecillo3715 STFU Palawan is in Western Visayas and the majority are Sugbuano speakers. Particularly in the western part of Palawan.

Another great content 😎 hello to 50 k subs soon 👍🏻👌🏻

[@LaMaiStyle]

Snorkeling is my favorite water activity

[@james_last]

You missed the very nice snorkeling spots there especially that the water is shallow

[@adrianpaulo7302]

Mergim you are almost at 50K, so pogi 😍 pls do a meet and greet in manila ill be there and ill give u a gift UwU

[@marierocher4422]

Melgim, there was a World Cliff Jump in El Nido in 2019’ it was really a very high jump. Try to check the video. You’ll enjoy it.

[@eleenilagan]

The place is so nice!

I share your video 20 people's

[@get2riz]

Mergim -- I imagined Yenly Yours living in Cebu's Virgin Island and she would have a mango tree. Ha, ha. Nice to see you had a relaxing afternoon. But being alone on an ideal beach would make me feel wistful. Sorry about your sunglasses. It is so much part of your daytime look.

[@Hook1229]

You should also visit Virgin Island in Panglao ,Bohol..The seafood is very cheap and fresh and the people won't take advantage of the tourists pockets.

[@iamkuroma5405]

Is this sarcasm? Haha

[@cecillemanmor5738]

😂😆

[@perlitaenriquez5131]

Have u ask them why they call virgin island ? Nice rxperience bro. Thanx for sharing this to us.

[@tryinghardtv3343]

yuhp, Virgin Island is a must visit place in Bantayan Island... low or high tide.. you can still enjoy it...... better go here during march and april not much heat, since it is almost summer yet you can almost have a good weether.. than coming there in ber months. Piece of advise from a local here in the island.

[@markfilomeno2054]

Wow❗️

[@trey5101]

There's also another Virgin Island located in Bohol but it's very expensive there, the foods are pricey 😆

[@snowtyboy]

Selling is already banned

[@ricocasinillo7796]

what on earth that all the most beautiful beaches in the world is in the philippines.

Scary,but nice dive Mergim...

Checkout Camotes next.... 😉

[@auroraborealis8703]

How did you do the aerial shots?

[@onlynice9567]

Mergim spent 1400Php (30 USD) to rent a boat and an island with few tourists, that's a great deal. You should've went a little early 😄

Always be careful Melgrim

[@vonespinosa7055]

CEBUUUU

[@vanjgals888]

u need to buy SPARTAN flipflops cost less than a hundred 😊

[@IrmaAbare]

Watch this three times and I feel that the place looks like Boracay Island, a lot better though! Try Boracay and you will like it, so many things to explore in Boracay and accomodations are great. You can stay in a budget hotel room and there are some not so expensive restaurants to eat , and there’s one place that is 299 pesos, eat all you can . You will enjoy Boracay more.

[@ben-jeffreykemp8840]

Be there soon would love to buy you a coffee and pick your brain on your experiences.

I bet touching the sand floor in the jump was a scary moment
