Panglao's Unmissable Treasures

Panglao Island features a diverse range of coastal environments, from the bustling white sands of Alona Beach to the quieter, expansive shores of Dumaluan and Doljo. The Balicasag Fish Sanctuary offers a protected marine ecosystem for snorkeling and diving among coral reefs and sea turtles. Beyond the coastline, the Virgin Island sandbar provides a unique tidal landscape. Local commerce centers around the Panglao Public Market and Tabuan in Looc, where vendors sell fresh seafood and regional produce directly to the community.
