Panikian Island is an island where sea turtles lay thier eggs and reproduce.The island is covered with white fine sand and beautiful natural Coral Reefs. The island is not that big, in just 15 minutes you can already explore the entire area. Also if you're lucky you can see and swim with 2 or more sea turtles (Direct Contact is not allowed).

In terms of food, there is an available market at the Municipality where you can grab Fresh Meat and Sea Foods. Sugba and Kinilaw one of the best food suited for the trip .Also, there is no available restaurant in the Island so everyone is required to have thier own food before departing the Municipality.

In Terms of travel funds and fare.
The Van from Pagadian to Pitogo is 100php or 2USD.Then the boat ride from Pitogo to the said island is around 200-400php or 8USD (back and forth).The price of the boat varies on the number people in the Boat ride (the more the cheaper). Overall, having 1000php is already enough for the fun considering if you are from Pagadian. I can give you a tour if you want.

Pitogo is also known for its beaches. So if you want more then Explore Pitogo for it can offer you a good moment that worth reminiscing.
