Take a cruise along Bohol’s Abatan River and get treated to an amazing light show of fireflies glistening against the night sky with this firefly watching tour. This trip is ideal for nature lovers who want a relaxing but magical night activity to cap off your day after a tour of Bohol’s best tourist spots.
The trip starts when you are picked up from your accommodation in Panglao or Tagbilaran. From there, you will head straight to Abatan River. You will board a boat along with other visitors and will be cruised along the river. A life vest will be provided for your safety so make sure to wear it at all times.
The boat will set out slowly into the waterways of the river. Your boat will be drifting near the mangrove forests every once in a while. Enjoy the calmness of the river with the sound of crickets as your background.
Seeing the trees along the riverbank decorated with the lights of fireflies will provide a magical sight. You can take photos and videos but make sure to turn off the flash and don't make too much noise to not disturb or scare away the fireflies.
Experience this unique eco-friendly firefly watching activity in Bohol for yourself. Check availability by choosing a date.
