Honda Bay Island Hopping Tour – Puerto Princesa Group Tour

The boat day itself with lunch, plus hotel pickup within the pickup area and drop-off afterwards. Not included: snorkelling gear and aqua-shoe rental, tips, and the PHP 150 per-person Puerto Princesa Ecotourism Development Fee, which is collected locally.

Honda Bay’s sandbars, snorkelling shallows and picnic islands, a short ride from downtown, with the Cowrie Island beach-club stop as the usual anchor. The listing notes that island destinations may change without notice, so the day’s exact line-up is confirmed on the boat.

Pickup at your hotel between 7:30 and 8:00 AM, boats out from roughly 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, then drop-off back at your hotel. The listing runs it as an 8-hour day.

Yes — a joining tour sells by the seat, so you share the boat and the picnic islands with other guests. It is the cheaper of the two ways to do Honda Bay; book the private boat instead if you want the day to run on your group’s clock.

It is the gentler of Puerto Princesa’s two big day trips: short boat hops, shallow water and plenty of sand, rather than the long ride and cave queue of the Underground River. Families with small children usually pick this one.

Gear and aqua-shoe rental are excluded from the fare, so bring your own mask or rent on the day. The listing also asks you to bring sunscreen and towels; a dry bag for phones is worth having on the boat.

Honda Bay has deeper capacity than the permit-capped Underground River, so a day ahead is usually comfortable. In the Christmas and Holy Week crush, treat everything in Puerto Princesa as if it sells out, because that week it genuinely does.

Full payment is taken at booking.
