Lagoons and Beaches tour will take you to the most awe-inspiring rock formations and lagoons which can only be found in Bacuit Bay. Secret Lagoon is in a small island reminiscent of the movie “the Beach” and is accessible through an opening hidden by limestone cliffs.
The lagoon is enclosed, akin to the mouth of a volcanic crater, by karst formations formed eons ago. Shimizu Island is an island popular for birds nest collectors as well as for its surrounding coral reefs near the shores. Here the guides will prepare for you a sumptuous meal while you snorkel in the nearby coral reef. Small Lagoon is accessible through a gap between two giant limestone rocks. Through this little space, you can swim or kayak into the lagoon where you will witness orchid-lined limestone walls and a kaleidoscope of marine life.
Big Lagoon is a running tour on board the outrigger boat where you will be treated to the scenery of limestone cliffs and a lagoon full of marine life. The boat stops mid-way where you can snorkel and kayak. Seven Commandos Beach is named after the 7 remaining Japanese commandos who lived in the island as stragglers after World War II. The island has a long white sandy beach lined with palms trees.
