Mactan Island is the perfect point to start day trips and dive safaris. Every Sunday we have a day trip starting 9am to the beautiful island of Cabilao near Bohol. Cabilao is famous for dramatic drop offs and pelagic like big schools of barracuda and, if you are lucky, hammerhead sharks.

Dive safaris usually last 3-4 days. The north safari brings you to the islands of Malapascua, Gato and Capitancillo. On this safari you can count on several shark encounters and quite often you run into a manta or eagle rays. Some wreck diving provide additional thrill.

The south safari brings you to the best dive spots of Bohol. Cabilao Island and Balicasag Island are famous for their colorful coral reefs teeming with fish.

Dive safaris are conducted on modernized outrigger boats. In the late afternoon we check-in at a beach resort close to the best dive spots. The next morning we continue the safari to the next island and dive spot.
