(And enjoy a fresh,Organic dinner at the Bohol Bee Farm for select packages only). Relax and see the fireflies glow in the dark while cruising along mangroves of the Abatan River. You may see five or more trees that is being inhabited by the Fireflies.

Dont forget to bring your camera and make sure it is good in the dark shots.
