Island Hopping and Snorkelling

A must for families, island hopping in Palawan or Cebu offers the chance to explore secluded beaches, snorkel among tropical fish, and enjoy the thrill of discovering hidden coves. Kids will love the adventure of stepping off a traditional bangka boat onto their very own “deserted island” for the day.

Wildlife and Nature Adventures

Introduce your kids to the wonders of nature with a visit to Bohol’s Tarsier Sanctuary, home to the world’s smallest primates. Alternatively, take a boat trip for dolphin-watching or venture to the Chocolate Hills for a landscape straight out of a fairy tale.

Best Time to Go

The best time for a family adventure in the Philippines is during the dry season, from December to May, when skies are blue, seas are calm, and island-hopping conditions are ideal. March to May is particularly great for snorkelling and boat trips, thanks to excellent underwater visibility. Travelling during these months also means you can make the most of the country’s stunning beaches, outdoor activities, and wildlife encounters without the interruption of tropical downpours.
