Balicasag Island Day Trip + Dolphin Watching
Description
Embark on a memorable day trip that takes you from Panglao to Balicasag Island, where you will have the opportunity to snorkel alongside vibrant coral reefs and graceful sea turtles. As a delightful bonus, keep an eye out for dolphins in their natural habitat!
Day Trip Overview
The adventure begins bright and early with a pick-up from your hotel in Panglao. From there, we'll proceed to the pier and hop aboard a traditional Filipino boat to commence our marine expedition. Let the journey begin!
Our initial stop will be in the open waters, where an exhilarating dolphin watching experience awaits. Glide through the crystalline waters of Bogol while watching these charming and lively creatures as they leap playfully around our vessel. It's an exciting way to kick off our journey!
Next, we set sail towards Balicasag Island, renowned as one of the premier snorkeling spots in the Philippines. Here, you’ll have the chance to dive into a protected marine sanctuary and explore its coral reefs, home to a stunning variety of tropical fish.
Additionally, you’ll be able to swim alongside magnificent sea turtles that inhabit the nearby waters. This underwater experience promises to be truly unforgettable!
After exploring the aquatic wonders, we will climb back aboard the boat for a brief journey to Virgin Island, where the idyllic white sandbank awaits. Following your time there, we’ll begin our return to Panglao, allowing you to unwind on the deck while admiring the breathtaking coastal views of Bohol.
This enriching day trip to Balicasag Island will conclude as we drop you back at your hotel after approximately five hours of exploration.
