Hot spring pools are, without a doubt, extremely relaxing and beautiful. Especially now it’s the rainy season in Cebu, we now have one of the many good reasons to finally try dipping into a hotspring. Besides the rejuvenating feeling we get from hotsprings, they also offer a slew of natural health benefits you may not know about. Hot springs are actually a rich source of sulfur and its healing benefits include treating skin irritations and infections such as rashes and eczema, promotes blood circulation and remove body toxins, among others.

Interested now? For the first-timers, the well-known Esoy Hot Spring in Catmon is definitely a good choice — primarily because it’s said to be the only hotspring in northern Cebu. However, the “No Booking, No Entry” Policy is strictly implemented. Meaning, you have to make a reservation first before coming here. Read on for the details.

Agtugop Cold Spring: A refreshing treat in Asturias

Summer might have passed already, but there are days the summer heat doesn’t seem to go away yet. It can get blisteringly hot, and when you feel sticky all day, there is nothing quite like a refreshing cold bath to rejuvenate your senses. And in Asturias, a quiet municipality in the Northwestern part of Cebu (north of Balamban and west of Danao City), you have the option to dip yourself in a bubbly cold spring.

Agtugop Cold Spring is definitely one of the uncrowded cold springs in the province. You can dip into the cold waters of the pool, where the cool freshwater springs forth in close proximity to the sea, while enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

If you’re planning to visit Buswang Lake, Asturias’ main attraction, make sure to also drop by Agtugop Cold Spring.
