 An island strategically located at Gutob Bay in Busuanga, Palawan. Gutob bay is a very popular for its beautiful and amazing chain of small islands that features white sand beaches and excellent diving site. Gutob bay is close to the popular diving sites of Coron where 7 Japanese warship sunk during the world war II.

Aesthetically, this Island is very attractive, and unlike most of the other islands in the area, is not overshadowed by the hill behind it. The corals surrounding the island are spectaculr, colorful and in wonderful condition. Luckily, the remoteness of this island has protected it from the ravages of local traffic.

There are several areas along the beach lined with palm trees and other areas shaded by mature trees. The vegetation is rich and luxuriant and covers not only the flat area of the island, but also the hills. There is a very large flat area of about 10 to 15 hectares on the island covered with mature vegetation and good soil - ideal for subsistence agriculture.


A shipwreck also lies near the Island. The proximity of the adjacent group of small islands means that sea kayaking is ideal, even for beginners. In fact, the area is currently used by several of the sea kayak outfits operating already in the main town. The island has an absolutely spectacular beach, pristine rainforest and magnificent coral surrounding it.
