Antulang: [in Zamboanguita, south of Dumaguete] about 30 minutes by bus from Dgte., another 30 minutes by motorcycle taxi, a/k/a habal-habal. After lunch, spent the whole time sleeping [and snoring!] at kookoo's beach. Tambobo bay could be reached from kookoo's by foot. We paid P100 per person at Kookoo's for entrance fee, but its consumable.
The food is kind-of expensive if you're on a budget. But if you're not, the price is reasonable, and reasonably good too. We ordered chopsuey, which had a peppery taste to it [unlike the sweet chopsuey I'm used to] and chicken satay. They also bake fresh breads and pitas.

Casaroro: [in Valencia, west of Dumaguete] about 15 minutes by jeepney, and another 15 minutes by habal-habal, plus a 20-minute walk from the road to the falls. Entrance fee is P50 per person + P10 [I think] for a cottage.
===== Night-out: at Rizal Blvd., in Dumaguete. Ate tempura in the sidewalk, listened to manong for a harana. And just sat down to cool off.
On Friday night, we had dinner at CB [or City Burger, which could also stand for Chicken Barbecue].
On Saturday night, we had dinner at Hayahay's pizza bar across Siliman portal. Afterwards, we went to Payag (for cocktails) across the provincial hospital, behind the pharmacy [beware of the cockroaches!] :)
