🌊 DIVE INTO THE BLUE: Celebrating Month of the Ocean 2026 at BPLS! 🐢🌴
This May, we join the entire nation in celebrating the Month of the Ocean with the theme:
✨ “Sustaining Ocean Health, Sailing Resilient Nation” ✨
Here at the Baliangao Protected Landscape and Seascape (BPLS), our turquoise waters and lush mangroves aren’t just a view—they are the heartbeat of our community. From the vibrant coral reefs of Danao Bay to the sprawling 200+ hectares of mangrove forests, BPLS remains a sanctuary for marine life and a shield for our shores.
Why celebrate with us?
✅ Biodiversity Hotspot: Home to 29 mangrove species and dozens of colorful reef fish.
✅ Ecotourism Hub: Whether you're walking our famous mangrove footbridge or snorkeling in the Misom Sea Sanctuary, you’re witnessing conservation in action.
✅ Climate Resilience: Our seagrasses and mangroves are natural heroes, sequestering carbon and protecting us from storms.
How can YOU help this month?
1️⃣ Say No to Single-Use Plastics: Keep our "Wetland Wonderland" clean!
2️⃣ Respect the Sanctuary: Follow local guidelines when snorkeling or boating.
3️⃣ Spread the Word: Share your favorite BPLS photos and tag us to show why our oceans matter.
Our Ocean. Our Future. Our Responsibility. 💙
