Hotel

Transfer.
Transfer to the boat embarkation point.
Dolphin watching.
Experience the thrill of watching dolphins jump into the air next to the boat.
Balikasag Turtle Island
Snorkel with turtles on the beautiful reef - Balikasag Turtle Island.
This is a must-see near Bohol Island. Balikasag is the best reef in the Central Visayas. Armed with a vest, mask and fins, you will be looking for sea turtles. Keep an eye on the surface - they often stick their heads out to breathe. Be sure to catch a glimpse of them and follow quickly. Turtles seem to be slow creatures. In fact, they are very fast.
Return to the shore. Transfer.
Bohol Bee Farm
Lunch on the summer terrace with a wonderful view of the sea and try ice cream of our own making (according to tourists-VERY tasty and unusual!!!).
Lunch is optional and paid separately
Snorkeling with sardines.
At a depth of only one meter there are schools of sardines! Huge swarms of fish that move like a single organism! Shimmering in the sun, trembling and changing direction in an instant if anyone tries to disturb their peace.
They're impossible to catch. If you crash into this swarm, they fly in all directions to reunite somewhere behind you. And if you lie on the water and do not move, they form a ring: a strange, gray, living cloud. It's an overwhelming experience.
And, of course, other sea creatures besides sardines live a full life at the same shallow depth.
Hinagdanan Cave
Bathing in the cool crystal water of Hinagdanan Cave.
Hinagdanan Cave is one of the attractions of Panglao Island. The small grotto attracts with beautiful rock formations and a clear underground lake. Around the lake are stalactites and stalagmites, practically connecting to each other.
Boating and firefly watching.
Transfer.
Kayak (boat) rafting and firefly watching.
Boat is used for rafting.
See thousands of fireflies glow in the dark in the rich mangrove ecosystem of the Abatan River. Witness one of nature's spectacles as you board a kayak and float down the river. Traveling to the Abatan River to watch fireflies allows you to immerse yourself in the magic of the night. It is an unspeakable sight and the feeling that you are part of something great and amazing

Return to your hotel. Approximately at 9:00 p.m.
