Cebu Tours now offers Mactan island hopping package, which will take you to Gilutungan island, Caohagan island and Nalusuan island which are located in Mactan, Cebu. The islands of Gilutungan and Nalusuan both have marine sanctuaries wherein you can explore with the sight of abundant corals and hundreds of tropical fish species. With the assistance of our boatman / guide, you can snorkel, free dive and you can even take nice pictures with the scenic views of these islands.

In addition to these islands, you will be able to visit also the island of Caohagan which is famous of its white sand beach and clear water where you can do snorkeling as well near the sandbar area. In this package, you also have the option to add the Pandanon island which is 45 minutes away from the 3 islands mentioned above, and is very famous in its long white sandbar. This Pandanon island is already part of the Bohol province which is accessible by boat from Mactan. If you want to visit Pandanon, just add it in the form when you book this island hopping tour.

On the other hand, if you just want to rent a boat in Mactan for your island hopping and opt out for our package which does not include transportation and food, you can book it here.
