💡 Good to know for this plan
- ~11.9 hours of daylight in March — the plan keeps days inside a realistic window.
- The official Philippines travel guide identifies November–May as Siquijor’s dry-season window. Every small-boat leg remains weather-dependent: reconfirm the registered Malatapay–Apo boat and the separately arranged Apo–Siquijor transfer before departure.
