Basilisa + Libjo — 2-Day Joiner

Both island routes over two days, on a shared boat, priced per head — for guests who already have a room in San Jose.

Duration: 2 days at sea · about 7 hours each day
Group size: No minimum — up to 10 guests
From: ₱3,699 per guest

Weekends · book from one seat — the boat sails once 10 joiners are booked · you arrange the night in between

About this tour

Both of our island routes, back to back. Day one is Basilisa — Cabacungan Cove, Duyos, a third beach chosen on the day, and Pagkawasan. Day two is Libjo — the Hagakhak rock formations, Pangabangan Beach, the Kisses Islets and Blue Lagoon, and Jelmars Islet Resort.

Booking the two together costs less than booking them as separate days, because the boat association prices a two-day run as one package rather than two.

This version does not include the night in between. Book it if you are already staying in San Jose, or if you would rather arrange your own room. If you want the night included, book the 2D1N version instead.

Like our other joiners, you can book from a single seat — we pool you with other travellers, and the boat sails once ten seats are taken.

Good to know

Meeting point: Don Ruben Port, San Jose
Meet-up at 7:30 AM at Don Ruben Port on both mornings.
Weather & safety: Sea legs operate only with Philippine Coast Guard clearance. If sailing is suspended, guests are offered a transfer to the inland heritage circuit, a reschedule, or a refund of the sea portion. Two sea days means two clearances — if one day is refused we run the other and refund the day we could not sail.
Booking & cancellation: A 50% deposit confirms your booking; the balance is due at least two days before your tour date. Deposits are non-refundable, but your slot is transferable to another person. Island-hopping joiners can be booked from a single seat: we pool you with other travellers and the boat sails once ten seats are taken, and if your date does not fill you may move to another date or take a full refund. Sunset combos and land tours run at their published minimum group size — below it you may book the shuttle separately, move to another date, or take a full refund.
Accessibility & fitness: Please advise us in advance of any medical condition, mobility limitation, or pregnancy. Viewing decks involve short walks on uneven ground and are not wheelchair accessible. This is two full days on and off a boat, boarding from the beach.
Children: Children aged 5–10 pay 50% of the adult rate. Children under 5 travel free, without a separate seat or set meal.
