The coast of the Philippines from the water: 4 sailing trips with their prices, how long each is out and what is served on deck.
Meet your English or Tagalog-speaking greeter near Astoria Boracay and sail White Beach aboard a traditional bamboo double-outrigger paraw. The 30-minute trip includes a captain, lifejacket, and photographs. You’ll float around the bay, take pictures, and return to the beach, though sunset visibility and exact timing depend on weather and operations.
Spend eight hours with skipper Sylvain on a private Beneteau Oceanis 430 for up to five guests. Sail from Corong Corong through Bacuit Bay, stop at Malpacao and Lagen Island for snorkeling and beach time, enjoy lunch aboard, and return at sunset. The route can change with weather, and English or French guiding is available.
“My boyfriend got the cruise as a birthday gift and we were so pleased with the experience. Sylvain was a wonderful host, the lunch was really great and he took us to beautiful places secluded from other tourists. We highly recommend booking this cruise with Sylvain, you won’t regret it.”
Set out from El Nido at 4:00 PM for 1.5 hours aboard a traditional Filipino paraw. You will share a boat for 5 to 8 people, watch sunset light reach Bacuit Bay’s cliffs, and sit on the side netting if conditions allow. English-speaking guides lead the trip, with captain Victor praised by name in one booking.
“Victor, the captain is very good man, did great sunset for me! Salamat!”
Set out at 10:30 AM with a private crew aboard a traditional paraw, then spend five hours around Bacuit Bay.
