Unlike the usual island-hopping tours, this activity gives you an authentic glimpse into the daily life of El Nido’s fishing community. You won’t just be a spectator—you’ll learn and practice traditional fishing techniques passed down for generations, directly from local fishermen.
It’s a chance to step away from the crowds, spend time on a small outrigger boat, and experience the ocean the way locals do. The highlight? You might get to cook and enjoy your fresh catch on a secluded beach—turning your effort into a truly rewarding meal.
This is more than just fishing; it’s a cultural exchange and a rare opportunity to connect with the people of Palawan in a meaningful way.

5.00I had a free day in El Nido and didnt want to do the package tours with a bunch of other people, I enjoy going fishing so booked this. So happy i did, I was traveling solo, they arranged a pickup from my hotel in el nido, we rode to the sleepy little fishing village. and got to see what real fillepeno life is about, Nothing touristy here. A little dirt path to a mangrove river. Huts dots the shoreline with locals fixing their nets. I met James my guide and we set off down the river and to the ocean to hand line some fish. We caught a literal bucket load of orange snappers with handlines. Super fun! He also was set to cook them for me, James and his buddy stopped at a random secluded beach, made a fire, cooked a amazing lunch and we enjoyed the afternoon. One of my most fun and authentic experiences in all of the Philippines. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for an off the beaten path / very local type of adventure. ** Tip, if you want a few beers to have during lunch after you go fishing get James to walk up to the store (right beside the path to the river) and grab some before you go
Great way to see El Nido on water with an awesome group of people 👏

5.00Fantastic day out doing Tour A with this team. As I was traveling solo I paddled the full length of the Big Lagoon so I was so grateful one of the guides helped out paddling me back to the boat when we finished in the lagoon. Great team and fun day out.
Above and beyond! These guys literally saved my drone (and my trip)!

5.00I’ll be honest: communication was a bit shaky at first because I had a US number, and it took a few tries through my hotel front desk and WhatsApp to get everything synced up. We had to reschedule twice—once due to weather and once because I got sick—and I was worried about the lack of response the night before the trip. However, once the tour started, everything was absolutely perfect. The fishing in Palawan was fantastic, and the lunch with local fishermen was some of the best food I’ve had. My guides, James and Janill, were incredible. They were professional, helpful, and very kind. The highlight of their service came when I crashed my drone into a tree about 100 feet up a steep mountain on an island. I thought it was gone forever, but James and Janill insisted on climbing up to find it. They used the 'Find My Drone' feature on my phone, located it, and brought it back safely. They even went the extra mile to drop me off right at the shore at Lio Beach at the end so I could meet my family before our flight. Yes, you might need your hotel's help to call them if you have a US number, but trust the process. These guys are hardworking, genuine, and will do whatever it takes to make sure you have a great time. I cannot recommend James and Jonel enough!

Mixed feelings. On one...

4.00Mixed feelings. On one hand, the trip itself was good, the boat crew was knowledgeable. On the other hand, there were no life jackets provided. At all. Just no such option available. That made the trip super stressing for my wife, who's not a swimmer and crossing deep water in a very small boat without the life jacket was a disaster for her. Once the tour operator finds a couple of life vests, the tour will be a real five-start experience.

5.00We had a fantastic experience with James away from the crowds of tourists. He explained everything to us from the start and catered to our needs. The lunch afterwards was also delightful, a completely new experience. The fish we caught and the chicken were grilled over the fire, and James prepared everything with love. We can highly recommend this tour.
A perfect and unique experience in El Nido

5.00This was a fantastic full day experience with real local fishermens on their boat. They know the places to get great catches and the lunch with the grilled fishes on a small island is an absolute to-do if you want something really genuine and outside the usual tourist tour. Boat scaled for up to 4 people, we were only 2 which was ideal. James and the other fisherman were very nice, friendly people to discuss with and they also cook very well ! For sure one the best souvenir I'll comeback with.

5.00Lagum Adventure’s fishing with a local fisherman was the highlight of our trip. We cruised past stunning islands, learned simple local techniques, and caught our own fish—grilled fresh for lunch on a pristine beach. The crew was friendly, safe, and knew all the best spots. Beautiful scenery, delicious meal, genuine local experience—definitely worth the price!
