After that, you go through a sizable caldera or depression and emerge into what was formerly a cave. Another beach is called 7 Commando Beach, after a company of troops who were left stranded there during World War II. It has a majestic feel to it due to the limestone cliffs around it, and you may relax there while the sun shines and sip coconut water. A must-see is Shimizu Island. With the peaceful sea as background and the shade of massive limestone cliffs, it's a great spot to unwind with loved ones. Payong Payong is a great option for beach picnics.

The activity was spectacular. Swimming, snorkelling, canoes, the food that he prepared for us was great. As for the guide on the trip. We had two, the outward journey was phenomenal. The return journey seemed like a bus. We left later, we had to wait and honestly the rock music when you come back tired after the whole day doesn't help too much.

Had a wonderful time seeing all the sights! We came during the off season and had no trouble with too many people. The guide was so nice, the food was excellent and even accommodated our vegan diet. Highly recommend!

It was an absolutely fantastic day!! One of beautiful and absolutely wonderful beaches and water. We were both on trip a and c, but we definitely think trip a was the best

Despite the rain, it is a worthwhile excursion. The landscapes are wonderful and you enjoy the activity just as much or more, and the team is very friendly and nice.

Great trip, our tour guides were very accommodating, funny and made the trip enjoyable (shout-out to Dexter). Would definitely recommend.
