About the Tour

A full-day trip to Honda Bay, visiting some of its most attractive islands for a relaxing day by the beach surrounded by crystal-clear waters and beautiful scenery. Enjoy a laid-back island escape with opportunities for swimming, snorkeling, and discovering the vibrant marine life of Palawan.


Why Choose this tour?

Honda Bay Island Hopping is one of the most popular day trips  in Puerto Princesa. Conveniently located just off the coast of Puerto Princesa, Honda Bay is the perfect choice for an easy island escape without the need for long transfers. This is a shared boat tour, making it a great option for travelers who want to explore Honda Bay in a more affordable and social way.


Places You’ll Visit

Honda Bay is a beautiful coastal area located off the eastern shore of Palawan, near Puerto Princesa City. It is known for its shallow coral reefs, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and several small tropical islands and islets, making it an ideal destination for a relaxing island-hopping adventure.

The destinations included in the tour may vary depending on group preferences, sea conditions, and weather. The itinerary typically includes Starfish Island, known for the many sea stars scattered along its shallow, sandy shores, or the Pambato Reef, one of the best snorkeling spots in the area.

Two other islands often included are Luli Island, a long sandbar that disappears at high tide and reappears once the tide goes out, and Cowrie Island, the most developed of the group, featuring shaded cabanas, food stalls, and a variety of water activities.

Tour Notes

Child Policy

Infant 0-2 years old = Free of charge
Child 3-5 years old and above = discount
Child 6 years old and above = full adult fare

Puerto Princesa Environmental Fee

It's a one-time fee valid for 10 days. You pay it once, and it covers you for any tours or activities in Puerto Princesa during that 10-day window.
So using your example: if you're doing Underground River and Honda Bay, you only pay the Eco Tourism Development Fee (ETDF) once — on the day of your first tour (Underground River). When you go out for  Honda Bay afterward, you don't pay it again, as long as it's within those 10 days.

Cancellation Policy

✅ Booking Fee: 5% Non-refundable
❌ 7 days before the travel date: 100% of the total (non-refundable)

🌧️ Cancellation Due to Bad Weather: If the tour is cancelled due to bad weather, we'll offer you a new date. If that doesn't work for you, we'll issue a full refund.
