Region 6 (Western Visayas)
A small collection of sunset photos in Isla Gigantes.
The Philippines is blessed with so many beautiful islands. Along with the many wonderful beaches, many islands also have beautiful rugged terrain surrounding the islands. Tall limestone cliffs and other interesting formations are common in the Isla Gigantes area (as well as some other parts of the Philippines).
Cabugao Gamay is located on the northern tip of Antonio Island (sometimes incorrectly referred to as Cabugao Island). It has a beautiful white sand beach with water on both sides. A short climb up the nearby hill provides a wonderful view of the beach and is often referred to as Selfie Island because of the stunning view.
Antonoa Beach is located in the southeastern peninsula of Isla Gigantes main south island. This beautiful area with two sets of beaches is home to many summer leisure activities. During the autumn and summer seasons you can rent jet skis and go for rides on banana boats (traditional or dragon).
We stopped by this island and sandbar in November 2022 for an early morning wander and then for lunch. The sandbar is often submerged so we were lucky to visit during a very low tide.
