Dauis is a fourth class municipality in the province of Bohol, Philippines. According to the 2010 census, it has a population of 39,448 people. It is one of two municipalities located on Panglao Island. The first bridge between the Poblacion of Dauis and Mansasa, Tagbilaran City, Bohol was constructed by Spaniards during their reign, possibly in the 18th century. The bridge is still there and in place, used as a connection between the two islands.
Dauis’s major tourist attractions are Our Lady of Assumption Church and Hinagdanan Cave. Our Lady of Assumption Church is locally known as Señora de la Asunción. The church was built by the Spaniards is constructed of solid rocks or stones and it has paintings on the walls that are quite attractive. There is a tower with a bell, outside the church there is another tower and there is also a small well, not deep in front of the altar inside the church where the parishioners will draw their water. They consider the water to be holy because it is claimed that it can cure illnesses. It was surprisingly discovered that though the area is surrounded by the ocean, but the water from the well is not very salty and is considered potable.
Hinagdanan Cave is located in Barangay Bingag and known as a tourist spot. The cave is unique because it has only one passage in going down into the cave and at the bottom of the cave it has a natural swimming area filled with natural water.
