Old Tourist Destination in Bohol Philippines
What used to be a tourist destination in the old days has now depleted into an anchorage for vessels owned by seaside settlers.
On this, the third generation of the Three Stonenians, an association named after the rock formation, Three Stones, seeks the intervention of government agencies concerned in protecting the marine resources and upholding sanitation in an attempt to save what’s left of what used to be rich marine life in Tagbilaran Strait.
Three Stonenians led by their president, Martin Alcano; Mercedes Kibir-Varela, a board member of the association; Gilberta Cornejo, treasurer; and Marcela Cinco, the secretary; along with 67 other members called on the barangay council of Poblacion 1 to exert political will in implementing regulatory measures on human activities nearby the rock formation that takes the shape of a traditional cooking tripod sprouting the sea level.
The barangay had already put up a notice prohibiting anchorage by any vessel and collection of pebbles at the Three Stones.
However, seaside settlers continue to anchor their vessels on the rock formation and even built pumpboats right at the shorelines which involve painting.
The association want to save the Three Stones as they want to revive its prominence as a tourist destination in the old days.
Alcano, who had been to the United States for a long time and had just returned home lately, lamented to realize that marine life had already deteriorated along the Tagbilaran Strait, particularly along sitio Sug-ang in Purok 2 of Poblacion 1.
Like Alcano, Varela, who had just returned from Maldives, also lamented on the lost “paradise” at the Three Stones.
On this, they are calling on the sanitation team of the city and the local office of the environment department to act on the situation, even just as part of their monitoring routine. – Sunday Post

Nahinumdom ko niadtong tuig 1987 akong gi ubanan akong anhing Inse Aning Ferniz Villanueva didto sa Three Stones kay mibisita sa among mga ig-agaw. Adtong panahona mga 70 siguro iyang edad.
Matod niya sa bata pa sila bibo kuno kaayo kini nga lugara ug daghan kuno ang mo dayo gikan sa mga lungsod para mangaligo. Ingon niya, puti kuno ang bas adto nga dapita ug didto sila mag duwa-duwa sa iyang mga ig-agaw nga taga didto.
Ako pod nga nabasahan nga historical kini nga lugar. Kini ang dunggoanan sa mga Chinese vessel/traders sa unang panahon, even prior to the arrival of the Spaniards.
Daghang salamat and more power sa mga tao nga nag initiate sa preservation ani nga lugar.
