From Panglao, spend six hours on a shared boat visiting Balicasag Island and Virgin Island Sandbar.

Local Balicasag guides lead the snorkeling, while the boat crew handles lunch and transport.

“Picked up from near my hotel on time. Arrived at the boat where we met the friendly boat crew. The weather did take a turn for the worse half way through the trip however, the crew where enthusiastic and continued all of the activities. Lunch was superb! All i would say is that if you are attending this tour then bring some wet weather gear as there is limited rain protection.”

I felt safe at all times on the boat and swimming in the water and he went out of the way to make our trip better such as coming to find us during the free time to tell/show us another turtle that had popped up. We saw many dolphins, turtles, and fish. The corals were fantastic. Would definitely book again!”
