Ohhhh, that's a beautiful beach.

it was awesome, gio. This is actually Virgin Island off of Bantayan. You buy the food at the market and take a 15-20 min bangka ride over then they cook it for you over there. The snorkelling was decent as well. A nice tropical paradise. The place is truly like Boracay 20 years ago.

I'm gonna post more pics soon, just need to catch up with all my work after being away for the week.

Thanks Marv, yeah it's a nice place.


@ pak: awesome shot of Mayon, Pak. Were you able to see the ruins?

@ Jon: no resorts on Virgin Island, but there are plenty on Bantayan. We stayed at Santa Fe Beach Club, which is the resort with the most amenities but it's also the resort with the ugliest beach.
