Eli Rock

Guide to Eli Rock in Cebu, Philippines.

Type: sightEntrance fee: FreeHours: Open dailyBest time: Morning or Late Afternoon

Eli Rock is a limestone outcrop rising from the coastline on Cebu’s east coast, part of the same karst formations that shape much of this stretch of shoreline. It works as a viewpoint and a photo stop: climbing to the top gives a wide vantage over the water, while the base holds small cave-like hollows worth a look on the way in.

Climb to the top for a vantage point that works well for sunset photography.
Check the hollows and small caves at the base of the formation.
Visit at low tide, when the tidal pools around the base are exposed and safe to walk — leave anything living in them where it is.
