The northern route — Blue Lagoon, the Hagakhak rock formations, Miracle Pool Cave and a reef stop off Jelmars.

Libjo is the northern half of the Dinagat island-hopping circuit and the more dramatic of the two. The boat works its way between forested limestone islets to the tidal pool locals call the Blue Lagoon, then out to the Hagakhak formations where the rock rises straight out of the water. There is time in the water at each stop and a beach lunch in the middle of the day. It is a full sea day and it depends entirely on the weather.
