Loboc River is one of the main rivers on the island. It is picturesque, and its waters are calm, so there are cruises on floating restaurant rafts. Of course, these are not real restaurants with a kitchen where they cook, but only pre-prepared dishes served as a buffet, but nevertheless the variety of dishes is not bad. The cruise begins with a hearty lunch, and then the voyage continues for about an hour and a half. The raft goes upstream to the small Busay Falls, where you will watch a traditional performance with songs and dances, and return back.
