Philippines · SARDINE RUN SNORKELING
The sardine ball sits a few strokes off Panagsama beach and turns the water dark when it moves. These 14 compare the shore starts, the boat versions that add turtles and Pescador Island, and the long combinations that pick up the whale sharks first.

Review of Cebu's whale sharks, Kawasan Falls, and Moalboal sardine run, with honest advice on timing, crowds, cost, and what to bring.
“I think this is the only tour that offers the whale shark, canyoneering, and sardine run packaged all together. It was a very long day but most tours only do two out of three of these activities so splitting it up between two days would have also been a pain since it's about 3 hrs of driving each way. Everything was really great. You do need to go with another person to get the advertised price, but it was basically almost a private tour as we didn't have anybody else with us. I highly recommend doing the canyoneering add on. We were picked up promptly at 2am and got back…”

“I initially booked this when there were no reviews, taking a gamble as it was one of the few tours that offered a Cebu City pick up as well as the sardine run add on. It was a long day but we'll worth it. I messaged the provider on Whatsapp the day before to confirm and they offered pick up from our Airbnb (even though it was slightly outside the 2km radius). Pick up was set for 6-6.15am and the van arrived around 6.20. It took about 2.5 hours to get to Moalboal where we had the most incredible experience with sardines and turtles all around us! Even though this…”

Swim with sardines and turtles, then tackle Badian’s canyon jumps and Kawasan Falls on a private, full-day Cebu adventure.
“Our day started off a little slow, not a lot of communication from the 1st guide about where we were heading first and the activities. Although after the first stop and seeing the turtles and sardines, the day was off to a great start. The Canyoneering was definitely the best part of the day. It was very fun with a lot of sights to see, water to swim/jump in and the tour guides were amazing! Overall I would recommend because the canyoneering and the falls are the best part.”
