What do I need to know before moving to Moalboal?

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Moalboal, they said...

"Expats moving to Moalboal should be aware that the town is a popular tourist destination known for its beautiful beaches and diving spots. English is widely spoken in Moalboal, making it easier for expats to communicate with locals. The cost of living is relatively low compared to Western countries, but it's still higher than in other parts of the Philippines due to its popularity with tourists. Expats should also know that the healthcare facilities in Moalboal are basic, so for serious medical conditions, they may need to travel to Cebu City. Public transportation is available but can be crowded and unreliable, so many expats choose to rent or buy a motorbike for getting around. The weather in Moalboal is tropical, with a rainy season from June to November and a dry season from December to May. Expats should be prepared for high humidity and occasional typhoons. The local cuisine is heavily based on seafood, rice, and tropical fruits, and Western food is available but can be more expensive. Finally, expats should be aware that while Moalboal is generally safe, they should still take standard precautions to protect their personal safety and belongings," commented one expat who made the move to Moalboal, Philippines.
