Witness a day in the life of the Sama Dilaut people who live in stilt houses adjacent to the wooden footbridge leading to the sea. This community in the municipality of Bongao  provides a wonderful peek into the culture of the Bajaus (Badjao). Apart from learning about their oceanic style of living, one will also be amazed by their craftsmanship in weaving, particularly the various colorful banig (handwoven mat) a lot of them make every day.
