Negros offers a striking range of activities beyond its beaches. Hike the slopes of Mt. Kanlaon, an active volcano surrounded by dense forest and rare wildlife. Explore the caves of Mabinay, including Cayaso Cave with its underground river. Go diving off Sipalay, where wreck sites and healthy reefs make for some of the best underwater exploration in the Visayas. Visit the charming university town of Dumaguete for its waterfront promenade and easy access to Apo Island. Or spend a day at Twin Lakes National Park near Valencia, where crater lakes sit in volcanic basins surrounded by orchids and the homeland of the Bukidnon people.
