Looking for an adventure? Bucas Grande is a mysterious island full of enchanted lagoons and caves.

Dagatan Cove: Your base camp for the adventure with many activities to offer – kayaking, swimming, making a wish at the Wishing Wall, and the giant slide.

Description

Get ready for an unforgettable adventure! Your day begins early, as Bucas Grande Island is a 1 to 1.5-hour boat ride from the Siargao mainland. Expect multiple transfers throughout the day (by vehicle and boat) because Sohoton Cove is quite a challenge to access.

Upon arrival in Socorro, the island’s main town, you'll register at the Tourism Desk before heading to Dagatan Cove, the base camp for your excursion. From there, small traditional pumpboats or "bangka" will take you through the stunning Sohoton lagoons. Accompanied by a local guide, you'll explore hidden caves, vibrant marine life, and unique rock formations. After a morning of adventure, indulge in a delicious lunch at Dagatan Cove, surrounded by a lush green landscape. Dagatan has many activities to offer – kayaking, swimming, making a wish at the Wishing Wall, and a giant slide.
