Snorkeling and swimming

Swimming and snorkeling will be a big part of our tours. If you are not a strong swimmer, tell us and we will make sure that the guide takes care of you.

Snorkels and masks are present on all our boats. You can also bring your own equipment if you want. If you are an enthusiastic swimmer and you are planning to spend a lot of time in the water, it’s a good idea to bring a long-sleeved rash guard to protect you from the strong tropical sun and annoying jellyfish stings.

motion sickness / sea sickness

If you get seasick quickly, take pills to prevent this. You can buy these in many stores or before you travel at the drugstore. If you have forgotten / can not find it, please let us know before we leave so we can bring it.

Food during the tour

Our menu is based on traditional Filipino dishes with fresh seafood, chicken, vegetables, fruit and rice. The seafood is first class, we buy our fish directly from the fisherman early in the morning before we leave.

We provide an adapted meal for those who have allergies, let us know if you have allergies. Vegetarians and vegans will enjoy the healthy dishes served during the lunch. We do not cook by plate, but in a large Filipino style, so it will be difficult to separate the ingredients, only for those who do not like garlic or onions.

Please let us know in advance if you have any allergies or if you are vegetarian or vegan
