Reminders

✔️ The best time to travel is during the summer months when the waves are generally calm
✔️ It is ideal to spend for atleast overnight to fully explore the place
✔️ Secure your things esp. gadgets with a waterproof bag
✔️It's still best to be self-contained by bringing extra cash
✔️ You can still bring and pitch your tent in the sandbar when it is lowtide and in the raft where you are going to stay at night
✔️ It is highly recommended to bring your own food and drinks including charcoals for grilling
✔️ You can also ask for freshly catched seafoods to the boatmen Kuya Vic and Kuya Orlan
✔️There is no electricity on the raft, only solar powered bulbs are provided and USB socket for your mobile phones, so it’s better to fully charged your powerbanks, wireless speakers and other electronic devices that are with you
✔️ Both Globe & Smart networks has signal but could be limited only for calls and texts, internet signal is quite erratic
