The experience

The tour starts with a pickup in an air-conditioned van and heads to CYC Beach, where you swim in clear water and walk white sand before moving to Coral Garden for snorkeling among thriving corals and diverse fish. The boat then takes you to Hidden Lagoon, where freshwater and saltwater mix to create a temperature that shifts between warm and cool as you move through it. Lunch happens at Atwayan Beach to break up the day.

After lunch you visit Kayangan Lake and Twin Peaks, where limestone formations rise from the water. The tour wraps with Green Lagoon and any remaining time at the other stops. A licensed guide speaks English throughout, and the boat carries life vests for everyone. The van handles all transfers between your hotel and the pier, and all entrance permits are paid upfront, so there's no stopping to arrange fees along the way.
