A half day on the white sand at Pangabangan, among the limestone islets off the Basilisa coast.

A shorter, easier alternative to a full hopping day. The boat runs out to Pangabangan, where a white beach sits against a cluster of limestone formations and the water stays shallow a long way out. Good with young children, and good as a first afternoon on the island.

Highlights

  • Shallow water a long way out
  • Limestone formations close to shore
  • Half day rather than full

What’s included

Verification in progress

A Dinagat-based operator running island hopping, inland heritage tours and sunset dining from Basilisa. Laaganan owns its own boats' shore logistics, shuttle vehicle and kitchen, which is why its itineraries reach places and hours that the standard day-tour circuit does not. It is Islora's founding operator and the proof-of-concept for the platform.
