Located just off the coast of Cebu City, Lapu Lapu (also known as Mactan Island) offers fresh seafood and historic shines, though it’s primarily a gateway to the islands of Nalusuan and Caohagan, home to coral reefs and world-class scuba diving opportunities.
Lapu Lapu is known for its pristine beaches, resorts, and world-class diving locations. It is also known for its rich cultural history as it was the birthplace of Lapu-Lapu, a chieftain and local hero who fought against the invading Spanish forces in the 16th century.
