Cebu City Local Time




Cebu is one of the larger islands of the central region of The Philippines known as The Visayas. Cebu province includes Cebu Island and a few smaller satellite islands for the most part undeveloped and unspoilt.

The beaches are the major draw of Cebu. Many visitors come only to kick off their sandals in the beautiful tropical beach resorts, taking advantage of Cebu's picture postcard shores, recreational facilities and great hospitality.
