Hiring a banca, that is a local outrigger boat, for a day will make some of the remoter places around Malapascua accessible. Several small islands with excellent snokeling can be found and quite often the boat will be accompanied by dolphins and even wales on times. One possible destination is Calanggaman, about 75 minutes by boat. With its large sandbank, the many coconut trees and the unreal blue colour of the water it comes very close to the dream picture of a tropical island paradise. Snorkelling and swimming are excellent. Besides some private rangers very few people inhabit Calanggaman, whose lives have not changed a lot during the past decades. You might be able to buy a fish for your lunch. Other possible dream islands are Carnasa with its lush vegetation or the more distant Maripipi with its huge and scenic vulcano. On Calanggaman also a likewise simple and romantic overnight stay is possible. All trips may be booked and arranged through Hippocampus, prices are available on request (depend on destination, number of persons travelling and food, anything from a packed lunch to a luxurious, romantic beach dinner is available).
