Seasons at Sun Xi Resort & Xi Shack

We have finally worked out our seasons and post them here for your booking consideration. They are based on the sun's apparent annual movements between the Tropic of Cancer at 22 degrees North of the Equator and the Tropic of Capricorn at 22 degrees South of the Equator. Cebu lies approx 10 degrees North of the Equator and is therefore almost exactly halfway between the Equator and the Tropic of Cancer. Hence we can determine that on May 6th and August 6th each year the sun will be directly overhead Cebu at 12:00 noon - and these technically should be the longest days of sunlight, and hence the hottest days of the year.
