BUSUANGA

19 September to 03 October 2021

Kayaking through the last frontier of the coral triangle

Put on the skin of a Tagbanua sailor and explore this corner of the Coral Triangle by kayak on an expedition that takes us to Busuanga, the most northeastern island of the remote Calamian archipelago. The place that Jacques-Yves Cousteau dubbed the “last frontier” and which he said was the most beautiful place he had ever explored.

During 9 days of kayaking, we will have the opportunity to go snorkelling in turquoise waters, camp on deserted beaches, explore forests and villages on foot and socialise with the Tagbanua people, one of the oldest ethnic groups in the Philippines, who Fernão de Magalhães introduced to the western world when he landed here in 1521 to supply his fleet.
