The staff were very accommodating, especially for beginners like myself. Special thanks to Alan, my guide, for his patience and understanding. They provided detailed instructions on what to do and what to avoid. However, we didn't actually dive at Napaling Reef—instead, we went to Flushing Meadows in Dauis, Panglao—so you may want to confirm the dive site with the team in advance. While there wasn't much marine life at our location, it was a good opportunity to practice basic diving skills.

I highly recommend this company and especially the instructor Dondon. I booked this place and we were outside of their normal pickup area. They messaged me via WhatsApp offering to pick us up. Yes please! We learned the basics at the facility, book/paper and how to use the equipment in the swimming pool.
Dondon is an incredible instructor - providing clear instructions and patient. He has almost 3-decades of experience training and is even part of the local water search and rescue team. Trust me, you're in good hands with him.
Scuba diving in the ocean was next. It was a thrill falling backwards into the ocean and swimming along the ocean floor with all the coral and sea life . Dondon guided us as we swam, not only giving us instructions with hand signals, but also filiming us with a GoPro. They provided us the videos via WhatsApp with no extra charge.
We did a lot of excursions while in Bohol. This was the most fun we had during our stay. Book this experience now!

We were very lucky on this trip to see dolphins out at sea, and snorkeling we saw various tropical fish and marine life. Beautiful islands and beautiful people, this itinerary is super worthwhile. The lunch was plentiful, and vegetarian options were also provided with ample food. The staff provided good service.
Itinerary arrangement: Although the hotel pick-up and drop-off service is very attentive, the car is too small, and passengers bump their heads when getting in. Carpooling, however, some people were not ready, but others had to wait in the hot car. I hope the arrangements can be more comfortable and convenient.

The location is easy to find, and I can say the beach here is beautiful. My husband and I truly enjoyed our visit. The food is tasty but pricey, so it’s really up to you whether you’d like to try anything from the menu. All in all, it was a good experience.

it was a great experience for us. have seen the Dolphins and the best was snorkeling: have seen variety of fish and the only turtle we saw. We have a very good guide while under water taking the go pro photos. Virgin island not impressive coz there is private property which does not allow anyone to go walking in the beach front. The overall experience is best and we enjoyed the tour.

Thank you so much for your excellent assistance during my first snorkeling experience. Your detailed explanation of how to wear the equipment made me feel very comfortable and ready to start. We traveled by motorbike with our guide from the school, and their constant support by my side throughout the snorkeling session allowed me to relax and enjoy myself completely. It was also wonderful that you took so many photos and videos and copied them directly to my iPhone on the spot. The availability of towels for the shower facilities was very convenient, as it meant I only needed to bring my swimsuit and a change of clothes. However, one minor point is that wearing a life jacket was mandatory, and an additional payment of 350 pesos was required on the day. I believe it would be helpful to provide this information in advance for smoother preparation. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

Taking a jeepney for about 15 minutes, you can do everything in Bohol within 20 minutes or so, so it was great to go with kids! The scenery was everything for our group gathering! Enjoying coupons and simple drinks, it was a delightful experience for both the eyes and the mouth! Even if you don't go through a company, you can confidently do a self-tour with Klook!! It's good to arrange a vehicle in advance if possible!! Walking while looking at the mangrove forest was longer than expected, but~~when else would I walk like this!! It was very, very satisfying^^

Although coastal conditions were moderate due to the enhanced Southwest Monsoon and the effects of Tropical Storm Domeng, our island-hopping tour was safe and enjoyable.
Our heartfelt thanks to our boatmen and guides, Eric and Gabriel, for their kindness, patience, and exceptional assistance to our PWD daughter during boarding and disembarking. We also thank the people of Balicasag Island for their help and support—a true display of Filipino Bayanihan.
The return trip to Panglao was challenging due to rough seas, but Eric and Gabriel remained calm, professional, and focused on our safety. Their skill and dedication gave us confidence throughout the journey. They even apologized for our delayed return, though the weather was beyond anyone's control.
Seeing dolphins in their natural habitat was a wonderful bonus. The food at Balicasag was excellent, our snorkeling guides captured great memories, and swimming at the Virgin Island sandbar was a highlight.
Highly recommended!

This is not a drill-YOU CAN FEED AND PET THE ANIMALS. OMG. The farm is well-maintained. and layout from start to finish is set up beautifully so you can maximize your time in each pen. The tour is at your own pace. The farm is serene and relaxing.

Quick facts about Panglao
General info
What to know before visiting Panglao
Quick snapshot of Panglao and what draws visitors
Panglao is a beachside escape best known for water activities, day tours and cultural experiences, and demand on Klook has clear seasonal highs and lows. Bookings peak around September while the quietest month is typically July, so the island’s rhythm swings between relaxed low season and a livelier late-summer peak.
When to visit for price and crowd trade-offs
According to Klook booking data, September is the busiest month and July is the quietest. Prices tend to be lowest around July and then climb through the autumn, with the priciest period appearing in June; in some months demand and price move together (both higher around September), while in others they diverge (July shows low demand and the lowest prices). If you want smaller crowds and lower prices, aim for July or the quieter shoulder months; if you prefer the peak-season atmosphere, plan for September when activity is at its liveliest.
Tips for travellers from Hong Kong
Most travellers book activities only a couple of days ahead, so Panglao works well for a flexible, short-notice getaway, though more popular slots in September may sell out sooner. Use Klook to lock in water activities and tours a few days in advance for peace of mind, and consider booking earlier in peak periods when demand rises.
