Meet Wild Spinner Dolphins of Bohol
The Bohol Dolphin Watching tour is one of the most extraordinary wildlife experiences in the Philippines. Head out to sea in the early morning hours and join hundreds of wild spinner dolphins as they leap, spin, and play around your boat in the crystal-clear waters of the Bohol Sea, near Balicasag Island.
This is not a performance β these are free, wild dolphins in their natural environment. On most mornings, you'll encounter large pods of 50 to several hundred dolphins leaping in the golden morning light.
After dolphin watching, combine with our Bohol Island Hopping Tour for a full day of ocean adventure including snorkeling and sandbar relaxation.
