Golfing enthusiasts can enjoy the world-class 18-hole par 72 Fairways & Bluewater Resort Golf & Country Club course, while nature lovers and walkers can explore the natural areas of rice terraces, waterfalls and lush plantations around the Tibiao whitewater river (the adventurous can even go whitewater rafting).
