About This Tour
Port Barton island hopping tours in Palawan are among the region’s most beloved adventures…
Port Barton island hopping is one of Palawan’s highlights — but the standard route often means arriving at the best spots with multiple boats already there. We built this tour for travelers who want the same stunning locations with a more peaceful, spacious experience.
Our signature counter-clockwise itinerary is designed to avoid congestion. Instead of following the same sequence as most operators, we time stops so you arrive when places are quieter and snorkeling is clearer.
Comfort is part of the experience. We use a large traditional bangka licensed for 30 people, but we cap the tour at 18 guests. That means room to move, space to relax, and a smoother day on the water.
Pricing is fully transparent. Your 1500 PHP includes island entrance fees, eco-tax, and a freshly prepared lunch — so you won’t be asked to pay “extra” at the pier. Just show up ready for a great day in Port Barton.
