This shared island-hopping tour departs by boat from a beach in Panglao and combines wild dolphin watching, snorkeling in the Balicasag Island marine sanctuary and an island beach party in one day. Look for dolphins in their natural habitat in the early morning, then swim among sea turtles and coral reefs at Balicasag. The guide helps you put on your snorkeling gear and takes underwater photos and videos, so you can enjoy the experience without worrying about pictures. After snorkeling, relax to music on an island beach with a Filipino-style lunch and unlimited drinks (rum, beer, soft drinks, juice and water).
Meet on the beach in front of Solea Coast Resort Panglao and board a shared boat run by a licensed crew. You attend a safety briefing for the water activities before departure, and a tour coordinator/guide accompanies you throughout. The whole tour takes about 5 hours.
The tour starts early with about 30 minutes of dolphin watching in the waters around Pamilacan Island. From the boat, you can see pods of wild dolphins swimming in their natural habitat.
Next, head to the Balicasag Island marine sanctuary and swim with sea turtles among the coral reefs. Masks, snorkels and life jackets are all provided, and the guide helps you with your gear and takes underwater photos and videos. The Balicasag Island stop lasts about 3 hours, including snorkeling and marine life watching.
After snorkeling, the boat anchors at a quiet island or beach for a Filipino-style lunch. Rum, beer, soft drinks, juice and water are unlimited, and you can join the party with music or simply relax by the sea. At the end of the tour, you return to Solea Coast Resort Panglao.
