 Vacations are most spent when enjoyed under the sun, combined with a wide stretch of white sand beaches, clear waters and delicious food. You can do all this in Honda Bay.
Located at the eastern side of Puerto Princesa, it is 12 km. away from the city proper to Sta. Lourdes wharf where a hired pumpboat will take you to the island(s) of your choice.
There’s the CANNON (CROWRIE) ISLAND; BAT ISLAND – a bat habitat; LU-LI ISLAND – an island visible only during low tide; its name was derived from the words “Lulubog-Lilitaw” meaning sinking and floating island; MEARA MARINA – a quiet, cozy, and private island to relax and enjoy nature’s wonder; STARFISH SANDBAR RESORT – an island with long stretch of fine white sand clear water that teems with starfish; SNAKE ISLAND – an island with long stretch of fine white sand and shaped like a snake; PANDAN ISLAND – white sand beach with coral reef nearby; SEÑORITA ISLAND – breeding site of Lapu-lapu fish; ARRECIFFE ISLAND – an island with Class A Resort and fine white sand.
Whatever is your choice of island, it will sure be lots of fun. Enjoying nature at its best! Just don’t forget to bring your towels, extra clothes and a lot of sun tan!
NOTE: Some islands require an entrance fee, others are privately owned so one needs to get a permit from the owner. |
