At four km southwest of Duljo Point, Pangalo Reef, Panglao Island you can find the 25 hectare large Balicasag Island. Besides one resort, restaurant and diveshop there is not much you can find on this flat island. It can be reached by boat after more than half an hour by banca from Alona Beach, Panglao Island.

Balicasag Island is a marine sanctuary and fringed by a narrow ten to fifty meter wide reef with a steep shelf offering excellent hard corals, sponges and gorgonians. Its crystal blue waters are excellent for scuba diving and snorkeling while its white beach amazes all that visit them.
