The Bantayan Trip

Bantayan Island?

Bantayan island, the shining tropical paradise in Asia is commonly known as an island paradise in Philippines. Tourists as far as Europe fall in love with its fine white sand and crystal clear blue waters. Many of these foreigners even settled down on the island to spend the rest of their lives. They build single-cottage beach houses along the shore but as time went by, construct a couple of new cottages instead to accommodate the growing number of tourists who seeks safe haven on the splendid island paradise. Two of the main attraction of the island is its crystal-clear waters and it’s long stretch of powdery white sand. The stunning sunset will really spice those romantic walks on the beach. One of the reasons the island is famous is its peacefulness, the way a resort should be. Unsaturated beauty and a combination of sweet smiling natives made the island as it is now.

Our Trip to Bantayan..

6 o’clock in the morning when our team decided to meet at the North Bus Terminal at Subangdaku Mandaue. We are heading to Bantayan Island, one of the most beautiful island in the Philippines most specifically in Cebu. AJ was the first to arrive at the departure area and followed by me. I arrive at about 6 am in the morning and somewhat the sun is already so bright. Looks like it is a great Day!!It is already around 6:30AM when everyone started to arrive. God! we’re so excited. Taking pictures here and there.
