Tarsier Sanctuary

Meet the tiny and elusive Philippine tarsier, one of the world's smallest primates, known for its large eyes and nocturnal habits. The Philippine Tarsier Sanctuary in Corella is dedicated to the protection and preservation of this endangered species. Here, visitors can observe tarsiers in a quiet forest setting that closely resembles their natural habitat. The sanctuary highlights responsible tourism, ensuring these sensitive creatures are not disturbed. Tarsiers are known for their enormous eyes, which help them hunt insects at night, and their ability to rotate their heads almost 180 degrees. Despite their adorable appearance, they are shy and highly territorial, making encounters with them a truly special experience. Informative displays and guides provide insights into their behavior, diet, and conservation status. Visiting the sanctuary supports ongoing efforts to protect the tarsier population and preserve Bohol’s natural heritage.
