Back in High School, Cebu Wetland was merely a place for people to visit to go boating and fishing. That’s about it. Today, Cebu Wetland has become a resort with 20 new rooms and a pool. You could also have a quiet dinner at their restaurant which is surrounded by water and live fishes.
Located in highway Tagonol, the resort has a swimming pool and a manmade fishpond with tilapia and catfish that visitors can catch. Visitors can also do so from the edge of the pond or from the three floating restaurants that jut out to the pond, or better still, from a pedal-paddle boat crafted by the resort owner, Engr. Julito Roden. Wetland has five of these pedal-paddle boats, which move around the pond by pedaling, or by paddling, or both.
Wetland is a dream being realized by Engr. Roden. When he was 16, he came to Cebu—he is from Southern Leyte—to continue his studies in the big city. He has been here since then, finishing mechanical engineering and landing in second place in the board exam in 1963. He also took up electrical engineering and passed the board, third place, in 1969.
the place has attracted visitors and has been catering to parties: baptismal, birthdays, and clan reunions. The place, open daily from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., is crowded on weekends when, to further entertain its guests, the Synapse band plays from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m
There is no entrance fee. If you want, you can avail their boat rides for only P 50.oo which is already unlimited. The pool’s usage is P 100.00.
