Most Pescador Island boat tours include stops at these mainland coastal sites.

A typical boat charter completes a 3 to 4-hour half-day circuit. After navigating the 11 to 15-minute ride from Pescador Island, boats return to the Moalboal coast.

These mainland stops let you snorkel with massive sardine baitballs and grazing green sea turtles. Trips often conclude on a sandy beach.
