This is a morning island-hopping tour from Panglao pier to Balicasag Island and Virgin Island. Look for pods of wild dolphins in the early morning sea, then snorkel around the Balicasag Major Fault to meet sea turtles, corals and tropical fish. Afterwards, take photos against the clear sea on Virgin Island's slender, tail-like white sandbar. As a small-group tour with hotel pickup and drop-off, you can enjoy it comfortably at a relaxed pace.
The tour begins when you meet at your hotel lobby entrance. Departure to the pier is at exactly 6:30 a.m., so please wear your swimsuit in advance and have everything ready for the sea trip, including a towel and waterproof gear.
Head out to sea by boat to look for pods of wild dolphins. Chances of spotting dolphins are higher in the early morning, and if you meet them, viewing time can be extended from 30 minutes to 1 hour.
After about 40 minutes by boat, you arrive at Balicasag Island. Snorkel around the Balicasag Major Fault and observe sea turtles, corals and various schools of tropical fish. If you wish, you can buy fish-feeding cookies at your own expense and try feeding the fish.
Travel about 30 minutes by boat again to reach Virgin Island. You can take great photos against the slender, tail-like white sandbar and clear water. While on the island, please remember where your boat is and keep checking the water depth.
After all activities, tell the crew in English, "Please contact the driver to pick us up and take us back to the hotel." The driver will take you back to your hotel, where you can shower and relax freely.
※ Wild animals live in their natural habitat, so sightings are not guaranteed.
※ Life jackets must be worn while snorkeling.
