Balicasag Island Day Trip + Dolphin Watching
Day Trip Details
First thing in the morning, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Panglao for a marine adventure on Balicasag Island. From your accommodation, we'll head to the pier to embark on a traditional Filipino boat. Let's go!
The first stop will be in the open sea, where we'll begin this exciting dolphin watching experience. We'll glide along the crystal-clear waters of Bogol as you see how these adorable and playful mammals jump and swim around our boat. What a great way to start the trip!
Then, we'll continue our journey toward Balicasag Island, considered one of the best destination to snorkel in the Phillipines. Here, you'll dive into a marine sanctuary to explore its coral reefs and discover the fauna that inhabits them, like the colorful tropical fish.
You'll also have the opportunity to swim next to majestic sea turtles that live in the island's vicinity. It'll be an aquatic experience that will take your breath away!
After enjoying the underwater world, we'll board the boat again to return to Panglao. Along the way, you can relax on the deck and enjoy the stunning views of the coast of Bohol.
Our day trip to Balicasag Island will end at your hotel 5 hours later.
Dolphin Watching
Dolphins are fairly unpredictable creatures, so we can't promise a sighting. The chances of spotting them depend on various natural and weather-related factors. However, the captain and crew will do everything possible to find the place where they are eating on the day of the activity.
