    Probably the best beach on this island. Fairly clean. Pretty water. Decent for snorkeling. Quite a few beach dogs.

    I think it was low tide when we went to the cave which was beautiful! Rock forms was elegant and mysterious at the same time. It would be great if someone was talking about the history of the cave.

    The cave was clean and tidy which I really appreciate it.

    Best for children especially in high tide since the water is just below my knees and I am 5'3" tall. The seashore is so wide you don't have to worry if your child roams around. I stayed their just for a night and enjoyed chilling around with pale pilsen beer on one hand. It was the best sunset I've seen so far.

    Very nice small island but during our current visit as of this writing, dated July 18, 2022.... Boat fare rate is P200.00 per head. The rate of P20.00 last 2020 was multiplied 10times higher... I think, Camotes Tourism need to act on this rate.... Maybe it is ok for foreign tourist but for local tourist who are earning lesser income, it is very expensive...

    To some tourist who recently visited Tulang Diot, please post comment if you have the same experience this 2022...

    This lake is ok for a look if on a tour of Camotes. It's cheap entrance and can enjoy a coconut drink or boat or kayak ride. Not much else to do here.

    Mangodlong Rock - A very affordable beach, budget friendly, an entrance of P20.00 and you can enjoy swimming on the beach, or you may avail room accommodation for an overnight stay... No swimming Pool....
    Mangodlong Paradise - just adjacent to Mangodlong Rock, is still affordable but their target guest are from Middle class to upper class target market, the ambiance is superb, Infinity Pool that is very colorful during night time, Peaceful and relaxing environment, Food at Bamboo Cafe with superb taste... Spacious rooms, and very nice set up.... A truly Superb Resort....

    Very affordable.... but on our last visit last Saturday July 16, 2022, a night before our visit, heavy rain was experienced the whole night, and on early Saturday morning, Santiago bay beach was full of woods, coconuts which was brought by the the heavy rain a created an average flash flood and ended at the beach of Santiago Bay....

    a beautiful waterfall in a very natural environment. With a clear water for a swim. Good for kids because the 'pool' is small and not that deep...

    Overall, it was good experience. There's already a stair that will guide you towards the underwater cave.

    The place has a magnificent view. With towering rock faces that you can jump off.

    For the jumping of the cliff is the highlight of this place.

    There is a 20 ft. jumping area good to ease your nerves.

    Finally you will be able to jump off a 40 ft. cliff.

    Just do it.

    a small cave with stalactites and "several kilos of diamons" acording to the guide or "cave discoverer as he calls himself, "i could be a billionaire if i sold the diamons but God told me to kepp them here for you to see, very cute :-) the guide is extremely religious and honnest to the bone, he truely believes that the heart of jesus, the hand of god, mary and the rest of the gang resides inside the cave... that alone is worth the trip :-) entry is free but you can donate, i am sure St.Paul (the tiny stalactite in the corner) would appreciate that ;) anyway a small and pretty cave with anamazing guide, worth your time for sure :)

    Very small, no swimming option, appearing much authentical though, almost no steps ( aside the entrance) or other stuff implemented, so in origin state, raises real cave feeling

    Buho Rock is a coral rock shaped like a small ship docked at a port in one of the cliffs of the Western Poblacion in Poro. It is situated in one of the few public beach resorts on the island.It is a great place to be as a viewing deck to explore the turquoise waters of Camotes’ ocean with your naked eyes.For you to really enjoy your stay on this particular site cottages have been built with native-style roofs and open sides, and sits and tables are available, of course.

    For you to exercise a little bit, you need to walk a steep flight of winding stairs to reach the ship-like structure. Some visitors also enjoy not just searching the horizon from Buho’s viewing deck…
    They also snorkel, swim, and even dive from that structure then swim back to the nearby shore and climb up the stairs.Being not a private establishment, Buho Rock allows visitors to bring in their food or snacks to enjoy better the view.

    The beach stretch is of white sand. The sand is soft to step on. Your foot get buried just right below your ankle. Good place for a luxury resort development.
