Tour C is the route for scenery and snorkeling. It reaches the outer islands of Bacuit Bay, where the cliffs are tallest, the beaches are tucked behind rock walls, and the water is some of the clearest you will see. Photographers love it, and so does anyone who wants the most dramatic day on the water.

The route

What you'll see

Helicopter Island (Dilumacad)

A long island shaped like a helicopter, with a beautiful white-sand beach and excellent snorkeling just offshore.

Matinloc Shrine

An abandoned shrine on a rocky point, with a short scramble up to a viewpoint over the bay that is worth every step.

Secret Beach

A hidden beach enclosed by cliffs, reached by swimming through a small gap in the rock. The inspiration for many an El Nido daydream.

Hidden Beach

Tucked behind towering rock formations, a quiet cove with calm, shallow water and dramatic surroundings.

Star Beach (Tapiutan)

A relaxed snorkeling stop with healthy coral and plenty of fish, often a lunch spot on the white sand.

Frequently asked questions

Is Tour C the best for photos?

Most travelers say yes. The cliffs, Secret Beach and Hidden Beach are the most photogenic stops in El Nido, and the snorkeling around Helicopter Island and Star Beach is excellent.

Is Tour C good for snorkeling?

Yes. Star Beach and Helicopter Island both offer healthy coral and lots of fish, and the water is clear and calm at most times of year.

Can I combine Tour C with another route?

Yes. A+C is the classic full-day private combination — the iconic lagoons in the morning and the dramatic outer islands in the afternoon.
