What sets the Lagum Adventure Balabac Expedition apart is the way we run the trip end-to-end: well-planned island routing (based on tides and sea conditions), a hands-on local crew focused on safety and comfort, and a relaxed pacing that gives you real time on the best sandbars and islands—not just quick photo stops. We keep the experience smooth with clear inclusions, organized logistics, and on-ground support, while practicing responsible wildlife viewing (turtles, giant clams, and starfish are admired with care and respect). It’s a true expedition vibe—raw, remote, and stunning—made easy by a team that knows Balabac.

    Tangkahan Island Tangkahan Island in Balabac is a relaxed beach stop known for its soft white sand and clear, turquoise water.

    Patawan Island (often called Dolphin Island) is one of Balabac’s postcard stops—famous for its powdery white sand, glass-clear turquoise water, and a sandbar that can look dolphin-shaped from above. During your Lagum Adventure Balabac trip, guests usually walk the sandbar for photos, swim in the calm shallows, and snorkel around the island when sea conditions are good—plus enjoy a relaxed beach break to soak in the view before hopping to the next island.

    Canibungan Island (Balabac, Palawan) is a quiet tropical escape known for its white-sand shoreline, agoho/pine-like trees, and shallow seagrass beds that create beautiful turquoise-to-emerald color gradients in the water. During your Lagum Adventure Balabac trip, guests typically swim in the calm shallows, take a beach walk for photos, relax on the sand, and snorkel near the reef when conditions are good—spotting corals and colorful fish close to the coastline.

    Starfish Sand Bar

    3 stops
  • 4
    Balabac

    Starfish Sandbar in Balabac is a stunning stretch of powdery white sand that appears during low tide, surrounded by shallow, crystal-clear water in vibrant shades of turquoise. Guests usually walk along the sandbar for iconic photos, wade and swim in the calm shallows, and enjoy a quick snorkeling stop nearby when conditions are good. Starfish are sometimes seen in the area—so we practice a strict “look, don’t touch” rule to help protect marine life while you enjoy this beautiful natural spot.

    Candaraman Island is one of Balabac’s classic stops—think cream-white sand, swaying palms, and calm, crystal-clear water that’s perfect for an easy swim and beach break. On a Lagum Adventure Balabac trip, guests usually relax on the shore (often a great lunch stop), take photos along the coastline, and snorkel in the nearby shallow waters when conditions are good. Just off Candaraman is the famous Starfish Sandbar, where starfish are often visible at low tide (we follow a strict “look, don’t touch” rule to protect marine life).

    Onok Island is one of Balabac’s most iconic stops—powder-white sand, a shallow “infinity pool” of turquoise water, and a sandbar that shows up during low tide. On the Lagum Adventure trip, guests usually wade and swim in the calm shallows, snorkel over the reef, and (when conditions and wildlife cooperate) get the chance to spot sea turtles feeding in the seagrass area and view the island’s giant clams from a respectful distance. It’s also a favorite for beach walks, drone-worthy photos, and a relaxed island break before heading to the next destination.

    1 hour 30 minutes Admission ticket included

    Balabac

    Bragi Island Bragi (Braggie) Island is a quiet Balabac stop known for its floury white sand, shallow turquoise water, and pockets of mangroves that make the shoreline feel extra wild and untouched. During the Lagum Adventure Balabac trip, guests usually walk the beach for photos, wade or swim in the designated safe areas, and enjoy a quick relax-and-soak-it-in break before continuing to the next island. Because this area is part of Balabac’s natural habitat, we follow the crew’s guidance closely—especially near mangrove sections—so everyone stays safe while enjoying the scenery.

    Punta Sebaring

    Punta Sebaring (Bugsuk Island, Balabac) is known for its powdery white sand and a wide sandbar that emerges during low tide—one of those places that feels unreal in person. During the Lagum Adventure Balabac trip, guests typically walk the sandbar, swim in the clear, shallow water (it can feel like a natural “pool” at higher tide), take panoramic photos, and watch the sunset when timing allows—making it one of the most relaxing, scenic beach stops in the itinerary.

    1 hour 30 minutes Admission ticket included

    Puerto Princesa

    Puerto Princesa is the capital city of Palawan and the main gateway to the island—most travelers pass through here for airport transfers, hotel check-ins, and day trips before heading to El Nido or Coron. Guests usually spend time exploring the city highlights like the Baywalk, local markets and food spots, and nearby nature experiences such as the UNESCO-listed Puerto Princesa Subterranean River (Underground River), island hopping in Honda Bay, or a quick side trip to Ugong Rock or Firefly watching depending on their schedule.
