This is a 3.5 = Pretty good. the guides were kind and resourceful. For the price this was a lovely way to spend the afternoon, the snorkling and island were beautiful. The guides did not actually know much about the islands or the environment, but were good people who need jobs. The boat was leaking diesel and they had to repair the engine several times. I didn't blame them, but the tour operator definitely needs more sustainable boats, it just does not make sense to send gas leaking, oily boats out into such beauty. Tourists - take a bit more time and find the highest rated green and in terms of guide training!

My friends and I went to Boracay way back May 2019 to celebrate my birthday. Was looking for an adventure that we can enjoy. Then I came across this diving at Ariel's point for whole day. I didn't regret doing this as activity as we really had a good time. We went to the meeting point in the morning, went on a boat ride for half an hour. On-board we had unlimited drinks of soda, liquor and beers which is really cool! when we arrived at the area we were given instructions by the staff. You can dive from 5m, 10m or 15m. And if you get tired from jumping or don't feel doing it you may, paddle boarding and kayaking. The location also was secluded and very clean!

Our trip was a shared one , we knew this and pick up was on time, Guide gave short introduction at each stop then group had a set time before we moved on. Lunch was initially to be very early 11.30 am but we alll agreed to make the river cruise and lunch last stop after chocolate hills. Viewpoint needs 200 plus steps so not for the lesss mobile. Pity that quad bikes below disturb peace of site. Excellent buffet lunch and river trip with music and bankside cultural show. Good value and varied if you can spare a day off the beach.
6. Bohol Island Hopping
Jetlag? Shake that off in Balicasag. Here, palm trees tower in contrast with the multi-colored beach umbrellas. And the immaculate white beaches beckon, this is a piece of paradise you must have. Balicasag is your typical circular tropical island surrounded by white to crystal to deep blue gradient in your color palette. The aquamarine water hides the islands greatest spectacles: its dive sites, among the world’s best. For starters, its snorkeling sites are gorgeous and will allow you to see your first clown fish. Swim into a swarm of feeding jackfish, and gape at an occasional grumpy grouper shying its way from the party. With popularly rated dives sites around the island, one can have Divers Haven, Turtle Point, Cathedral Wall, Royal Garden and the Black Forest, just take your fill. And when you’re done with it, leave only footprints.
Inclusions: Lunch (optional- selected packages only, Hotel/port pickup and drop-off boat ( it depends on the Location), Local guide, Bottled water, Lunch
