- Balicasag Island - Guests will be greeted by the boatman guide at Alona Beach to embark on a boat trip to observe dolphins. The exact location and sightings are not guaranteed, as dolphin pods may change feeding areas seasonally. This activity will take place a few kilometers from Balicasag Island.
- Balicasag Reef - Guests will transfer to a small paddleboat with a guide, in groups of 2-4 per boat. The paddleboat guide, a local islander, will lead guests to two locations: 30 minutes in the fish area and 30 minutes in the turtle sanctuary. Due to government policy, the paddleboat guide is not our own boatman. Balicasag Island is a well-known tourist destination, and all tourists must have a guide before snorkeling. There may be a waiting period for guide availability.
- Doljo Beach - Additional snorkeling will be available at Gak-ang, Doljo, or Napaling, depending on wind conditions. Lunch will be prepared while guests enjoy snorkeling.

Join a shared half-day tour to Balicasag Island and make new friends along the way. Since 1985, Balicasag Island has been a designated marine sanctuary, offering a chance to witness vibrant marine life.
Boat boarding takes place at either Alona or Momo, depending on the wind conditions. Enjoy a ride on our larger boat and watch dolphins swim alongside! Refreshments will be available onboard during the 11-kilometer journey to the dolphin sighting area. Please note that dolphin sightings are seasonal and cannot be guaranteed.
Following the dolphin watching, guests will head to Balicasag Island to transfer to a small paddleboat with a local tour guide. Each snorkel area visit lasts 30 minutes, featuring the big colorful fish area and the serene, majestic turtle area. Life vests and snorkel gear are provided.
Due to a government ban, the Virgin Island Sandbar is closed. As an alternative, guests can enjoy extra snorkeling at Gak-ang, Doljo, or Napaling, depending on wind conditions.
A freshly grilled lunch will be served on the boat.
The tour concludes with a return to the meeting point.
