Our 2nd day in Bantayan was planned to be spent at Virgin Beach. Manong told us that we can head there early and he'll prepare our food for lunch and we can eat there as well. We just needed to give him money the night before to buy the food to be cooked.
It was a 1-hour boatride from Hoyohoy to Virgin Beach (Island), as we approach the island it was evident that the water was indeed clearer there. Manong told us that Virgin beach/island was privately owned and that the caretaker charges an entrance fee for visitors to enjoy the beach. Costs around P50 each.
Yes, the sand was white! Not as powdery as Bora though, but it was secluded, as if we were the only people there for quite some time. During lunch time, a few other boats arrived as well. As our lunch was being prepared, we opted to go swimming and have a lot of picture-taking. :)
Group pics!
Lunchtime! Let the eating begin...
Sarap! :)
If only Bantayan wasn't THAT far, I'd definitely go back.
CARPE DIEM!
I'm out.

btw, i like your pictures with boats. i don't know, but i am always fascinated with photos of boats near the shores. great captures, cza!
bantayan remains to be one of my favorite. the length of travel doesnt matter to me. im planning to go there next year and explore some more islands there.
