Overview

One of the top attractions in Bais, Negros Oriental, is dolphin watching, where visitors can see dolphins in their natural habitat instead of in captivity. These playful creatures are naturally curious and often swim close to boats, delighting travelers with their graceful movements.

After dolphin watching, the tour continues to the stunning Manjuyod Sandbar, often called the “Maldives of the Philippines.” This breathtaking stretch of flawless white sand extends for about seven kilometers and is best experienced during low tide.

At high tide, the sandbar becomes submerged, and the native wooden houses appear as if they are floating on the water. As the tide recedes, the sandbar emerges like a white pearl rising from the sea, creating a magical and unforgettable view.

If you wish to book a budget-friendly tour package, you may try our Bais Dolphin Watching + Manjuyod White Sandbar Joiner Tour with included lunch and boat rental.

Visiting Season

The best time for Dolphin Watching is from March to October, avoiding the northeast monsoon prevalent during other months, which can make cruising challenging. Additionally, high winds and waves during this period reduce the chances of dolphin sightings. For your guide on dolphin watching and Manjuyod sandbar, click here to see tide times for the week.

WHAT TO EXPECT

The waters of Bais are home to a variety of dolphin species, including the playful and acrobatic spinner dolphins. Dolphin watching tours typically start early in the morning to catch the dolphins at their most active. During these tours, you might see dolphins leaping and spinning out of the water, often in large pods. The tours often include a boat ride through the scenic waters of Tañon Strait, where you can also enjoy stunning views of the surrounding landscapes. It's a fantastic way to experience marine wildlife in their natural habitat and enjoy the beauty of the coastal environment.

Manjuyod Sandbar, often referred to as the "Maldives of the Philippines," is a stunning natural attraction located off the coast of Bais City on Negros Island. This sandbar is famous for its picturesque white sand stretching into the turquoise waters, creating a spectacular and serene landscape. During low tide, the sandbar becomes a prominent feature, offering visitors an opportunity to walk on the shallow waters and enjoy a pristine beach experience. The clear, calm waters are ideal for swimming, and the sandbar's remote location ensures a tranquil setting away from crowds. It's also a great spot for photography, picnicking, and simply relaxing while taking in the breathtaking surroundings.
