This is Heaven in The Philippines Bantayan Island
this is one of the most beautiful beaches that I've personally seen wow this beach is just so stunning we could stay here for a very very long time oh my God this looks like you can fall through hello hello oh my God no diving at low tide is this high tide or low tide that we're currently looking at should we dive or no what do you think it looks very shallow yeah it's probably low tight I don't even know how I got here with my flip-flops how do I get back okay how unbelievably beautiful is this though guys Welcome to our slice of paradise here in bantayan Island seu Phil Philippines crystal clear blue water surrounding us right now and we're starting our day off here at ruins now I have no idea what this is what ruins of what building this actually is so please let us know down below we actually could not find information about this so yeah please drop a comment down below but it is nonetheless a fantastic picture opportunity I'm sure that we're going to be taking plenty of Instagram selfies and photos and stuff like that here and right beside here is as you just saw plenty of cliff diving opportunities as well yeah at this online that this is the cliff diving spot yeah please don't die but uh yeah there is a sign saying no cliff diving at low tide and this uh looks presumably like it's the low tight definitely low I think it's like less than half a meter of water there so if you jump from this for example you are definitely not the way the rock is structured there's probably like halfway is probably where the water usually is if you point the camera you can see like an indent that's probably where the water usually goes 100% yeah but nonetheless guys it is absolutely gorgeous everywhere around here I love the whole vibe the whole atmosphere everything about the water is just perfect and the ruins itself is uh yeah it's like I said it is like a picture opportunity and there's plenty of spray paint and stuff like that so it gives you like sort of a different look and a different feel to it definitely can take some photos like that you can pretend it's like album covers or something like that but uh yeah very fascinating Place very beautiful place as well and there are people uh you made it into the water just now I think you can go from the left side there are people in the water yeah yeah which is really really nice the water has like a very cool uh appearance to it very picturesque and I'm sure the temperature of the water as well is thank you perfect too they're saying you need to go there to the left and then you can go into the water there because I just saw that couple up here yeah uh so yeah you can go there to the left and then go into the water that way wow amazing yeah today guys we're going to be exploring the whole or as much of Bantan Island and bringing you guys with us this island is a very highly recommended place but at the same time it's a lot less known than other islands for example like borak or Palawan or Saro and uh yeah there's a lot less tourists here I'll be honest and it is fantastic Vibe here for sure yeah so far the tourists kind of seems seem to be dotted just along the like western style uh Resorts so if you do go to some some nice beaches that are well known uh not like this one but like the really nice beaches here on the island Like Paradise Beach or whatever uh that's where you usually that's where you find the tourists but everything other than there uh you don't really see tourists like guess you can see it's just pretty much uh locals out here and uh where we are staying we're staying in a really small place called jmj Island Hut uh Island Hub not Hut and uh there's no tourist there either so yeah we're pretty much the only foreigners everywhere we go other than the like main Whoopi the main Foreigner spots Great oh my Indonesian flip-flop just broke no but I think I can shove it back in maybe I can shove it back in I think so this is the flipflop repair location can you hold the camera for a second my flip-flop just broke yeah I need to shove it back in but the Indonesian plastic is sturdier than I thought Yi always gets into trouble here I'm not in trouble my two yearo flipflops from Bali are just not flip flip-flopping right guys let's go and explore the island of panan this as a first destination doesn't get much better St jaw dropping beautiful pristinely clean as well like unbelievably clean beautiful white sand beaches beautiful Rocky beaches anything that you want to experience this is the real selling point I guess you could say of the Philippines is just how beautiful it is and obviously the amazing people as well oh wow oh my God I assume this is where the water is usually with normal normal Tide high Tide uh because the stairs just stop in the middle of the air yeah true so the water probably comes up to roughly here and then that would be perfect if you wanted to dive uh from these rocks so from these for example you have a nice kind of a platform that you could jump straight in but yeah way too low for us right now I would love to jump in to that crystal clear water especially right now because wow it's very very hot let's just have a look at dipping our feet no beautiful yeah I think we can maybe know where the couple was we can walk over on the other side and like just to dip our feet have a look we'll bring you guys boiling it's just like early in the morning it's already so hot just look at this place guys definitely can recommend you guys um to come and visit here for sure the only the only negative that I'm going to say so far about this island is if you're someone that relies on Wi-Fi this is not the place so but that's that's the case for a lot of these types of Island destinations if you are someone that needs to be remote working or you need to be doing anything really online other than maybe sending an email it will be difficult yeah in the last video we have been talking about potentially uh prolonging our stay here on bantayan island but um as Luke said we have no internet so we have no mode of uploading this video which means we have to go to the next spot basically and then upload this video and other videos from there and uh yeah facilitate our YouTube channel that way and also my remote work how do you get down there how how do you go just here oh you can go here nice but you cannot go all the way you have to climb no sort of looks like you're halfway in the air again yeah but the stair stops in the middle again okay very nice though wow very cool spot gorgeous really unbelievable and you have miles and miles of Coastline all the way around this island it doesn't get any less beautiful the more you travel around this island that's why we're calling this our first island paradise that we visited here in the Philippines this is gorgeous I cannot get over guys the color of the water here it is like postcard stereotypical blue and uh everywhere that I'm looking it just gets better this is like another picture opportunity another place to take a video another place to explore and that's what we're going to do now guys we're going to bring you to a very popular Beach here on this island but it's not very very popular in terms of the grand scale of the Philippines this place is apparently known as Paradise Beach and that's where we're going to go to next uh I have no idea of the real name I think it's like sandira or something like that but we're going to make our way there and um apparently you do have to pay an entrance fee we haven't seen it yet but uh it's supposed to be the best place for taking a dip and for if you do like white sand beaches this next destination that we're heading to is apparently perfect hence the name Paradise Beach so let's go check it out there guys as well obviously there's plenty of restaurants and cafes and bars and everything like that and here in Santa Fe on the island Santa Fe has some pretty great night life we haven't seen any of it yet but we heard that it has fantastic night life there's plenty of things to do during the night and evening times here and there's a huge selection of great restaurants you can get local food you can get fast food you can get burgers Pizza anything that you want is here on this island so keep that in mind you will not be short on options when it comes to food let's go and jump on our scooter that we rented and head to Paradise Beach goat goat goat goat the goat goat goat goat goat goat goat goat trying to find the entrance to candida Beach or Paradise Beach see how it goes cuz uh from the looks of it a lot of times it's not obvious where you have to go left or right because there's like no signs and it's like Offroad a lot of times so you have to like drive on Sand and the Rocks hello let's have a look we already went wrong probably but it's okay it looks like there's another connecting street so let's just oh there's a cow that's a young cow it's a cal so funny to see these like farm animals just at the beach they're just relaxing having a good time at the beach with a nice view so I think it's really nice for the farm animals the younger goat did not like that at all there seems to be like a lot of places just about to be built like it's halfway done and the people are still building on the inside so hello oh yeah I think there will be a lot more tourism in the future here this is this is the spot if you want to be somewhere close to SIU easy to get to this is the spot here I think over there you have to go to the left ooh basketball BAS basetball seems to be a big thing in the Philippines so it's like everywhere you have basketball uh places Fields basketball field is that what you call them court court oh basketball court okay hello also looks like a lot of people here are selling maybe food or drinks and stuff like that locally so maybe it's a good place to have food at the later stage yep by the way my lower back is still in bits oh cute H my lower back is still in bits from the bus strive by the way oh here Paradise Beach campsite to the left there is a sign yes oh and the scooter is not helping my lower back at all NOP on the contrary hello puppy hello hello wowzers welcome to let me fix this camera guys welcome to sandira beach so we just paid an entrance fee 25 pesos per person now that seems to be pretty typical in the Philippines from what I've been hearing people will charge an entrance fee for different beaches and it typically depends on if you want a beach that is totally clean totally pristine and well-kept and uh no plastic things like that they typically will charge you a fee now we just got speaking to some people and they told us that depending on which side of the beach that you enter you will be charged 70 pesos per person on a different part of the beach so if you are looking for um a lowcost entry into this part or into this beach definitely check out the uh Lower Side of the beach so the side that's closest to Santa Fe but it's kind of difficult to find it online sandira beaches uh where you paid the 70 pesos and then there's this other uh one that's called the beat the Paradise Beach campsite yes there's also a paradise public beach M I don't know about that one but on Google Maps The Paradise Beach campsite that's the afford less expensive access point that's basically where we just came in and uh 25 pesos per person so 50 pesos that's um very reasonable especially considering that this beach is supposedly um very very clean and supposedly Paradise is yeah exactly so this is kind of the walkway towards the beach yeah straight to the water but um yeah it's understandable I think some other countries that we visited um like uh turkey for example they do charge entrances entrance fees to certain beaches um the difference is in Turkey when you pay for an entrance fee into a beach it typically will come with things like um facilities so like you'll have maybe outdoor showers or changing rooms or stuff like that now this is our very first experience with a pay to enter beach in the Philippines so we don't really know what to expect let us know Down Below guys if uh you do recommend anywhere else around the north of seu because that's where we're pretty much going to be for a while uh after here we have some very interesting that we're going to go to but it will be around the north of Sabu so stay tuned for that there's a pathway here pathway over here nice have a look if this is the way to go it looks like there's some sort of stairs or something maybe I can see I can see wet people so this is probably the place yeah it's the stairs wow oh my God this looks like you can fall through seems kind of kind of weird a little bit scary to fall through the stairs be careful with the stairs there big hold big Cubs okay we made it we survived wow this is cool so apparently this beach is sort of separated it by two owners so that side you will have to pay 70 pesos and this side you will have to pay 25 pesos per person so that's kind of the difference I guess between sandida Beach and Paradise Beach hello hello have a look you want to put the towel maybe in the shade yeah like under the rock or something that would be perfect let's live under the rock like Patrick Star there's also a doggy at the beach wondering if the doggy also paid entrance probably not probably not everything's free for dogs is it wet no no it's not all good all good place the towel down and go for maybe a snorkel or something like that yeah this beach is something seriously beautiful though check out how the herit huh oh there's hermit crabs oh my God it's quite cold I clean the waters wow and then there in the distance I don't know if you can see it in the distance you have like fish farms or maybe shrimp Farms or something like that so it seems like uh there's a lot of local sort of agricultural activities going on here in the area as well especially with the cows and the goats and all of that jazz as well and then obviously you have fish farms and shrimp Farms so yeah there's a lot of local activities outside of Tourism as well so that's nice to see Stone and all yeah yeah yeah wow wow this beach is just so stunning and the water surprisingly enough it's not uh it's not like lukewarm or anything like that it's kind of more on the refreshing side I don't know if that's just because it's insanely hot out here or if the water temperature is actually a little bit colder but it does like if you compare it if you go in it does feel a little bit refreshing so it's very nice oh somebody Switched Off the Light now I cannot see anything um but yeah I just went for a little bit of a snorkle there and uh it's absolutely stunning here you can can see some fish and a lot of uh sort of starfish and stuff like like that around here you do have some puffer fish and Stuff swimming around so oh there's a shell oh no there's a hermit crab living in that shell I I'll leave him alone but yeah you can uh see some different sort of fish around here so I do feel like this beach is still relatively healthy now um there is no Reef or anything like that at least not in the first sort of 20 to 50 M um but maybe if you go a little bit out I'm sure maybe there in the distance or something like that where there's not so many people not so many visitors maybe there is still a reef that would be intact I'm not too sure but uh yeah overall the beach is pretty empty there's Luke now teeny tiny Luke overall there's not so many people um there's quite a bit of local tourists as well like Filipino people that are just out for the day H with their fames so that's really nice to see and uh there's also some sort of foreign tourists like ourselves so it's a nice mix it's not only I don't know in the beginning when we arrived I thought it was maybe a little bit one-sided just with h foreign tourists with foreigners but it's not actually it's kind of a nice mix of them but yeah my God I don't even need to put the camera on the water uh to show you guys how clear the water is you can see basically everything and then you have darker spots out there where it seems like there's some algae or something like that growing but yeah absolutely stunning place and uh if you're hiding a little bit there under the rock formations you can even um sit in the shade so that's nice now I don't know if the sun moves a little bit maybe during the day maybe there will be a little bit less Shades but yeah right now we can still sort of shove our belongings into the shade so that our phones aren't blowing up so yeah super nice place what do you think yeah I understand the name guys this is for sure the paradise uh this is where Naomi just brought you guys and as you can see it is uh just gorgeous and it stretches a good bit down this way and to be honest for me this is one of the most beautiful beaches that I've personally seen the whole vibe here is very relaxed everything in general on the island of bantayan is just perfect and uh we could stay here for a very very long time if there was more Wi-Fi that's the only issue that we're running into again in this island and we are people that depend on it unfortunately we really wish that we didn't have to depend on it but if we didn't this would one 100% be a perfect place for us to spend a very very long time maybe a couple weeks or a couple months or whatever yeah guys I think next up we're going to bring you guys to another location we're going to hop back on the scooter after we dry off because we've been sort of swimming around and speaking to a couple of tourists that are here and uh we're going to head to our next location we're going to go and check out a different part of this island different part of um we're currently in Santa Fe and then there's also bantayan town as well so we'll take you over there and see what we can find because we haven't explored anything yet so other than this and we are not disappointed with this at all something as well before we leave this beach there is very limited amounts of shade here so just be careful if you are coming here try and get yourself a place on the under parts of the these rocks other than that you will be stuck in the direct sun and you don't really want that for a long time so but there is plenty of places um all along the beach where you will be able to find shade uh it's just if it's a little bit busy you might not be in look but yeah keep that in mind guys let's go and check out the rest of this amazing Island well done yep Sal bye-bye bye bye cow oh my God Island Road baby Island roads baby baby oh my God okay we are currently driving away from Paradise Beach and we want to go to bantayan City or bantayan Village we're not sure how large of a place it is but uh yeah at the moment our reception is so bad that I literally I I am struggling to even find the way the maps the map is not loading or anything like that so we're just sort of uh driving and driving and driving to see if we're going to get better reception somewhere and we're driving into the general direction of where we think monan is but we're not 100% sure so we might uh might go somewhere else hello but yeah the locals are super friendly so I think if we're going to get stuck somewhere because we don't know where to go we're just going to ask the local and they obviously are going to know where to go so yeah maybe we will just have to ask somebody right guys we managed to get to bantayan uh City and it seems like there's a lot more sort of locals here there's a lot more hustle and vessle in uh in general it seems to be like where pretty much where the locals live on the island if they don't live in rural part seems to be bantayan it's the part I believe so far at least it seems to be the most developed here on the island so we have very good roads all over here um lot of like larger sort of Supermarket even some fast food chains and so on so this seems to be the place to come for develop stuff we need to go left sorry it says no entry I don't know this one no he says no Google map says to go here he says no no entry no entry for St Peter's no the church St Peter Church oh oh this way okay okay thank you turn around Google map says to go here back this is the back of the church the the okay so if we go this way and around is okay around the plaza oh okay okay nice but Google Maps Google Maps says to go here so uh yeah whatever you do when you come to this Fontan Island uh try not to rely on Google Maps or anything like that hello okay okay thank you thank you so whatever you do do not rely on Google Maps either the maps don't load or if they do load they send you down a oneway street where you're not supposed to be going maybe yeah you have to find your way around sort of with by asking locals so just drive around the plaza here this way he sort of said to drive around the plaza and then it's on that left side this is beautiful really large Plaza here very nice ah it seems like they have a lot of nice decorations here with the little sort of flags in the top wow this is a nice place very nice oh even basketball court here public one where's the church we're just trying to go to church oh it's over there it's over there yeah maybe we can park somewhere and just walk over here so yeah as you see guys General confusion about what we're doing and where we're going but that's just the usual motorcycle parking only okay we are a motorcycle well kind of scooter by the way my phone never managed to actually um load Google Maps but Luke's phone man managed so yeah make sure you have two phones welcome to the center of pantan now this looks like Naomi said a lot more developed than Santa Fe where we're staying you've got big playgrounds you have basketball courts you have a ton of different options for food as well all in one square so yeah we're going to check out this church and see what we can uh see if we can check it out it may be from the outside or maybe if we can even and go inside we'll see yeah this looks like a nice little spot we're already nearly dry by the way yeah welcome to St Peter and the apostles church now this is apparently a musy here in bantian and that's the whole reason that we kind of came here to check it out is because the host of our Airbnb actually recommended us to come and see this place so let's see if we can make our way inside and show you guys this beautiful Church it does look pretty old as well I'm guessing maybe 15 1600s gorgeous so this is like the cork yard just outside of the church very nice little space here whole bunch of different shrines and there's even a cafe over here as well [Music] so the inside of this church is genuinely I think for me I don't know about Naomi this is one of the most beautiful churches that I've ever seen in my life it is a long church and the entire ceiling is covered in absolutely beautiful frescos all the way down to the Altar and it seems to accommodate and fit a a lot of people yeah it's a lot bigger uh on the inside than it actually looks on the outside and it says there on the sign that the Fresco show the creation of men the fall and then Redemption so basically if you start here you start with Adam and Eve and then you go down and it just tells the entire story of humanity basically it's really gorgeous this is uh genuinely the first it's the first church that I've ever walked into and I've just not been able to speak I've just been totally speechless [Music] actually the work that they dated here on the church is really incredible sorry I'm trying not to speak too loud because there's obviously people praying but you can even see the Fresco of santono deu here in this church they have really beautiful uh glass work [Music] everywhere how cool is that kind of feels like the circl fulfilling itself if that makes sense in English uh yeah I'm trying I'm so sorry we're trying not to scream inside of the church obviously to not disturb any other people out here we can speak normally but they also have a cafe here from what it looks like and they have a St Petro's uh church here as well which is very very cool like a little kind of Cathedral on the side just for St Pedro cuz obviously this church is called St Pedro so hello and I believe out there with the ladies you can buy some candles as well and then light them here on the side wow this is so cool oh the cafe is called the fisherman's Cafe Luke and I are sort of on the lookout now for uh some food that was initially the plan obviously seeing the S St Peter's Church here and then uh maybe finding something to eat on the way somewhere uh let's have a look we found we saw a good few kind of like Leon and chicken places on the way so maybe we can we can find some nice barbecued something something yeah I think we're in the right place in terms of selection of food uh bantayan Town itself has a lot more it's a lot larger and more sort of put together I think than Santa Fe Santa Fe is like the real sleepy beachy part of the island and that's where we're staying obviously but here I think we'll be able to find something to eat for sure on the main plaza kind of seems to be like bake shop Central like they have loads and loads of pastry shops but nothing saory and we're kind of looking for a lunch not for breakfast or sort of afternoon tea so we came back out a little bit and found chicken publico hello how are you so chicken publico uh I believe this is where we're going to have lunch maybe they have something nice let's have a look looks like a nice spot now looks like a nice spot yeah it looks like they already sold out nearly everything but they have some some fried chicken and some Shia which we still didn't try so maybe we can try that one all right guys let's see what we can get here so on the menu they have a two-piece combo a one piece chicken and a six- piece chicken and corn dog dogs hello you have corn dogs uh yes sir but I need to cook sorry need to cook oh okay how long how long does it take uh 10 minutes 10 minutes okay it's okay I'll have uh one big corn dog one big corn dog and for me the combo one rice oh then maybe also a corn dog then just two corn dogs two corn dogs um yeah sure and uh you have mango milkshake yeah for me one mango milkshake and for me a blueberry milkshake all right guys let's try some corn dogs at a chicken place here in h monan very random but should be good they have a very um sort of random mix of things you can get Ramen rice bowls different types of chicken they have rice currently in the rice cooker that's going to be done in roughly like 17 18 minutes but uh we're deciding to go for the corn dogs why not big corn dog is only 55 pesos with mozzarella cheese so can't really go wrong there oh wow thank you thank you sir Ming oh this one looks really nice with the sauce she went all lot on her sauce KS really big corn [Music] dogs oh my uh straw literally just blew down the street but we we retrieved it he ran away from look don't use me that's actually really nice it tastes like a what are these like gogurts or something oh it tastes like a Gogurt kind of that's very refreshing that's really nice like a mango milkshake but tastes like yogurt it's very nice not not too sweet I'm going to give my blueberry shake a try here as well guys see if I can get it first try boom Easy Like Sunday Morning skillful skillful job so we found this place guys just on the street that basically connects this is actually called Santa Fe 2 bantay Road or Street and uh I'm very excited now to try these corn dogs but let's give this blueberry version of Naomi strink TR it's really thick oh she really tasty as well I like mango better yeah I like I like blueberry better this is very very tasty this is so heavy that it like it looks like the stick is going to snap you think it's h too hot to eat it might be hot but be careful just maybe give it a nibble oh my god oh the cheese P holy Jes I did not expect for the used to be in there I didn't I didn't know that was the best cheese Bowl I've seen in a long time it's nice very good obviously deep deep fried deep fried goodness so you can't really say anything bad about it it's deep fried it has cheese it has mayonnaise it has ketchup it has everything I don't know if there's like a sausage on the is there supposed to be a sausage on the inside or I'm assuming because we're at a chicken place it should be a chicken sausage on the inside but I have no idea W there's a chicken sausage found good very good tasty uhhm yeah okay I think I'm going to give it a try now as well I'm really liking this blueberry Shake though very refreshing road is pretty busy here guys Naomi is handing me my giant corn dog don't let the stick snap let's give it a try here oh my God I wasn't paying attention for 2 minutes and I look back at the Clos at sa I'm covered in sauce that again was a really crazy hello hello really crazy cheese pool the flavor off of this is um it's very nice it has obviously just a gigantic deep fried casing I think it's mayonnaise and ketchup over the top of it packed full of mozzarella cheese as well and uh yeah it's going to basically keep us full I think for the next maybe couple of hours while we are scootering around Fan Ireland um it's pretty good value for 55 pisos it's less than1 yeah 55 P it's like maybe like 90 cents or something like that it's very tasty like I I don't mind it at all like it's not maybe what uh what we could put on is like uh something like spicy something spicy would make be nice other than that it's amazing that's very true maybe some um chili flakes or something like that over the top give it a little bit of a kick this is a very nice oh Naomi has another cheese pull again there's so much cheese a lot of cheese yeah I think for 455 pesos you can't really go wrong this is going to be a very filling and a very satisfying snack I'm not even one quarter of a way through mine also the shakes are delicious they're very very refreshing they're not overly sweet uh they're just perfect this is a really great stuff I'm very happy here yeah what was it called chicken publo chicken publo is the name so if you chicken place yeah public chicken place if you do see Chicken publico on the Main Street here in bantayan give the corn dog and maybe a blueberry or a mango shake uh you really can't go wrong I would even try the combos they have like rice and fried chicken combo that's what I initially wanted but the rice would have taken like another like 20 minutes to cook so I said oh I'm going to have a corn dog as well but I'm sure the rice and chicken is also nice so we were just on the east side of the island and no sorry we were just on the west side of the island and because of how small the island is we're talking about like 6 km to go onto the East Side just sort of cross it once and that's exactly what we're doing right now because there's one more place that we really want to see so we're just sort of in the process of Crossing uh through the those like 6 km that I just said and we're nearly basically on the east side right now this entire Road just sort of looks like this there's not a whole lot going on on the left and the right we just saw like one or two smaller churches other than that there's like really nothing going on it's just pretty much like agricultural land you can see obviously the banana trees some palm trees uh papaya and so on other than that there's not a whole lot on like the middle of the island what it looks like uh very interesting bird I don't know if you just saw that there there was like a blue king fisher I think from what it looked like any who's is we're really excited to eat up one or two more spots and uh we're just on the way there right now I just don't want to get there and be like so guys we are there and then you guys don't know how we manage to cross the island so yeah we are crossing right now wow these people really must like their privacy yes left to here it's very interesting to see that this is like the street is just like sand like you can see here and but then there's like people living uh basically at the beach like it's completely normal um it basically says now that the beach is on the right here don't know if you can follow this street without trespassing to somebody's home seems to be okay kind of maybe right hey we went wrong again or kind of we went right but Google Maps sent us in the wrong direction uh we came here to see bat Lagoon beach and also I think from here you might have a like relatively nice view onto Virgin Island do you mind taking this helmet off me okay I'm not sure if you actually have to pay here but there's like uh Lagoon information and the man is already looking at us so maybe you have to pay or he wants to sell a boat tour I don't know we have to have a look so guys this is uh known as a lagoon apparently over here I believe there's like a couple sand bars I'm not too sure now what this island over here in the distance is but this one on the left left side here is Virgin Island and that is supposedly supposedly you can go snorkeling uh scuba diving stuff like that let us know down below if you guys have done that but uh yeah it's supposedly a very nice place a nice place to see a lot of uh sea life I think there's a reef Virgin Island as well around the virgin Island and um probably a place where you can see the treasure sharks as well cuz I know malap Pasqua malap Pasa is very well known for uh treasure shark diving now this beach here is definitely not as pretty as the Paradise Beach but I suppose the east side of the island probably has to do with the fact that it's not a paid to enter Beach it is still very nice it's uh just a little bit more on the local side there's obviously a lot of uh What's this called sarazm This is called sargas sarazm yeah so there's a lot of s I believe it's just because we are on the east side of the island so this way I believe it's yeah you can see the Open Water from here so I do believe that's why uh this beach looks a little bit like this and it's also a lot more local it's just sort of fisherman and I think you can take the boat from here as well to go to Virgin Island now we heard sort of various prices sort they sort of ranging in between 1,000 to 1,200 uh pesos to get over to the Virgin Islands and back that's a round trip and that's per boat it's not per person so you can like put as many people as fit basically onto the boat and still pay 1,000 to 1,200 pesos yeah like if you for example take a group of your friends if you have four people five people whatever hello hello four or five people six people whatever uh you can definitely mitigate and like limit the amount of money per person that you're spending so you don't have to go with just yourself or just two people or whatever but uh this is a very unique looking Beach because here it has like sort of I'm guessing a man-made Pier it looks like they literally just use rocks to make this pure and then you have all of the fisherman boats as well and a lot of people are drawing their clothes on their boats that's interesting and then sort of this way you have all lagon all the Lagoon is over there oh okay now I understand this is not the Lagoon this is just the open where you can go to Virgin Island and this way is the Lagoon oh the Lagoon is just here behind us ah okay so you can see we're kind of on the beach here yeah and this is the Lagoon basically yeah so we're being split by the by the Lagoon so this here obviously is open waterall and then the Lagoon goes in here behind but uh yeah it's definitely a different side to Bantan Island the beaches that we saw earlier today uh they have Crystal Clear beautiful water this water is actually the same it's very clear and very clean but there's a lot of sarcasm here at the moment and I guess that just has to do with the side of the island that we're on and also the fact that this is not the touristy part of the island like Naomi said it just seems to be a lot of uh fishing activity yeah but I do believe it's still it's still tourist still a lot of people taking the boats from here it's just not the staying at the beach side of the island I guess yeah yeah oh there's a goat on the beach there's a goat on the beach I was initially planning to maybe walk down onto those rocks but I don't know if it's even possible yeah yeah true you okay wow guys different side to the island yeah but I kind of feel like this uh makes the island a lot nicer and more sort of local yeah that's a little bit the part that where I was like sometimes was missing that's very true it was kind of like feeling a little bit touristy here and there yeah sometimes um different Islands depending on where you go they can feel like they're too touristy or there's too many um tourist activities but here on this side of the island as you can see it's very peaceful very quiet and uh super local these are usually the types of places that we enjoy the absolute most so I'm very glad that we decided to drive the scooter out here and check this place out it's gorgeous hello you okay hello a
