Travel Tips
Book a boat from the Palompon port — the crossing takes about 45 minutes. Bring all your food, water, and supplies since there are no stores on the island. Arrive early for calmer seas and to claim the best spots on the sandbar. Sunscreen and reef-safe sunscreen are strongly recommended.
