The boat takes you near Hilutungan (not on the island) where one can enjoy snorkeling. From there the boat diverts to Nalusuan and you get to see this island. It is a divers island and views are good. After a short walk on the island, you head for snorkeling, which is away from the main island. From there the boat takes you to Caohagan where you get to walk around and laze around on the beach. (No snorkeling here). Do note: there is no help available if you are a first timers for snorkeling. If you are in a group it is worth it. For solo tavelers, if someone from the group helps, worth the trip, else you could get bored. I was lucky to have a good group and enjoyed the views and snorkeling too! Also : they serve local food. So if you have specific preferences, pls carry your own food. And do take something to munch.

It was a good day trip. Clear water, lots of options to swim , snorkel. Lunch was just ok. Should bring your own snacks, beer available for purchase in the island.

Great tour would recommend it to anyone. Loved this tour our guide was great and because it was a private tour they made some small changes to suite us. Great lunch included.

Very friendly tour guide. If you're one of the first to be picked expect about 2 hrs before reaching the boat. Mostly because of other pickups for excursion and traffic. The tour was very nice, good snorkeling, nice lunch, and enough time at each place to unwind. But compared to island hopping tours in ElNido this is almost times the price.

The ride to the boat was a bit long but a very good way to see the streets of Cebu. The driver did a great job. It’s totally worth it since the water and fish were awesome and lunch was delicious.

Very nice when you hovered over the water that was max 30 cm deep between the islands.

An amazing time snorkeling!! But also great to relax and feed some fishes. Excellent guide and boatmen, very knowledgeable, and we even got lucky enough to see some dolphins on the way to the first island

Had a great day on the water snorkeling some great locations, the only negatives would be the boat engine needed a muffler on it and that the mask is not great, as well as they did not offer any fins to go with the snorkling

They said all fees were included but we got on the boat and had to pay all kinds of fees. Fee to drive into port, environmental fee, admission to island fees even just to snorkel. Someone texted at the beginning of the day and that was really helpful and they were very responsive. They did reimburse us for the majority of what we paid in fees n taxes that were supposed to be to already be paid. Just a lot of confusion about the money and we struggled to know if people were being upfront with us. The snorkeling was fun and the guy in charge on boat was accommodating. The food looked amazing but because it was not kept in a cooler we chose not to eat any meat because it had been sitting out all morning.

The boat crew are absolutely fantastic and go out of their way to make sure the guests are happy and enjoying themselves. One even gave his sandals to a passenger to use because she did not have any water footwear and the ground was filled with rocks.
