Ever wanted to visit Liloan? Then check out our bucket list for your next adventure in the town of whirling waters and delectable rosquillos!
Liloan, dubbed as the Light Of The North, is not just a place, but also an experience. From its century-old architecture to its adrenaline-pumping water sports scene, every corner of this town is bursting with excitement. Join us as we dive into the heart of Liloan and discover the best it has to offer:
1. Bantayan Sa Hari
Immerse yourself in the local culture and history at Bantayan Sa Hari, a historic site that offers a glimpse into Liloan’s past. It is a century-old watchtower built during the Spanish era of 1857. The tower is located in Barangay Calero and was used in the old times to guard the local community.
Because it is a “forgotten” structure, expect that the journey towards the watchtower will be challenging. There will be scrubs, tiny ground caves or holes that may cause you to trip and fall, and a rocky road ahead.

Gear up for some extreme fun at Papa Kit’s Marina & Fishing Lagoon, where you can try thrilling water sports like kayaking and wakeboarding. For a budget-friendly price, you’ll get the chance to zoom through their ziplines, ride the skybike, and roll in a hamster wheel that’s suspended above! But don’t worry if you’re not a fan of adrenaline-rushing activities because Papa Kit’s also have a space for you to relieve your stress, such as their fishing lagoon, restaurant, and a stress-wall. Aside from that, they also have rooms great for hosting events with a great view of the marina.
