    Went on our own. Easy to get to

    An easy pulmonia ride for 100 pesos or catch the bus to the ferry dock. Then just take a water taxi for 30 pesos to the island. You can walk around or book any of the activities yourself and the day was much less expensive...More

    Day trip.

    It was nice to venture over. This was a fantastic place to walk along the beach as it’s relatively flat without rough surf. If you have the time it’s worth paying a visit. There’s plenty of spots to grab a bite to eat or just...More
