Colorful Fishing Boats Everyone who comes by ferry from Hagnaya to Bantayan is greeted on arrival by two beautiful islands in the vicinity of Santa Fe. One is Virgin Island always had a little visit worthwhile because of the beautiful beaches and wonderful snorkelling opportunities. The larger of the two islands Hilantaga an Island is less well known but has still lost nothing of its pristine originality. Until now there only live some fishermen selling their fresh fish, mostly in Bantayan on the market or near the port of Santa Fe. Often the beautiful shell lamps coming from there, you can buy them everywhere in Bantayan Island.

The fishing huts are unfortunately not very Photogenic but who would like to experience like a real fishing village in the Philippines today, looks like there should necessarily do there a short stop. There are indeed often only simple houses and sometimes even just cheap tin huts, but the ordinary people you encounter there are the friendliest one you can only imagine. The things that are noticeable visiting such an island are the many colourful fishing boats and countless children welcome you often already at the beach. They are always friendly and usually come at once started always in the hope of a little gift. Brought sweets are mostly very common, no angry parents give a disturbance. So who ever has the time to make a trip to Virgin Island or just a circular tour around Bantayan Island should make here a short stop in Hilantaga an Island.

Bantayan Island has barely Tourism

Bantayan Island BeachAs a former globe-trotter who has always been looking for a quiet little paradise, I always start immediately to rave when I think about my favourite island of Bantayan. Since I came here years before by the ship looked at the clear blue water here, I know I will settle down here.

Length of coconut palm-fringed beaches only to walk there, a simple one as it is elsewhere in the beautiful places of the world often can not because the beaches were built. Fortunately, the Philippines here now to take their laws very seriously and cultivate threatened with fines in which the delicate beaches. Also on Bantayan where a few small hotels and private houses trying to build closer to the beaches were just recently filed lawsuits. On the one hand, we know the owner and we like them, on the other side I want to prevent by anything in the world, that these beautiful beaches are just built too.

At the moment the island is in a twilight sleep and is shunned by the large tourism industry. This bestowed normal prices, and quiet nights because of this here are no nightclubs and so the fishermen here still go from house to house for their fish products to offer. Each of the views of a small travel to Bantayan Island thinks everything should expect but not a tourist hot spot where he gets everything. Bantayan Island is a small island, although a few sites but mostly there are not more than 50 tourists on the island.
