Island tour on this half-day trip! Hop on board a boat that will take you
along Bohol's scenic coast. Meet dozens of playful bottlenose and spinner
dolphins and go snorkeling and turtle watching!


Visit Balicasag Island, Bohol’s top diving destination and a marine sanctuary.
Find colorful corals and fishes of different species as soon as you submerge
into its clear waters. Get the chance to see the rare black coral reef, an UN-
listed Marine Protected Area. Upon coming back up, spot the lighthouse located
in the middle of the island.


Then, explore Virgin Island, a lovely sandbar in the middle of the ocean. Take
a dip in its crystal clear waters. Enjoy the scenic view of surrounding
islands with complimentary drinks & snacks, and get a chance to swim with the
friendly sea creatures if you’re lucky.
