Philippines is composed of 7,107 islands and it's the best country to experience island hopping. In Panay, Guimaras island is the perfect island for island hopping. During a day stay in Tatlong Pulo, we had island hopping in neighboring islands and islets. We rented a small pumpboat (yung de motor kasi takot ako kapag simpleng bangka lang.) for 400 php equivalent to 9 usd more or less.

We were approaching Naburot Island. It's prohibited to visit the place unless you are the guest. (Sarap mag gate-crash at magnakaw ng buhangin for a souvenir, lol)

We went back and finally stay in Tatlong Pulo. It was our own island for several hours. That's the side view of Tatlong Pulo.
Our Tatlong Pulo escapade up next (parang snn lang, lol)
Trivia:
My first Guimaras Island hopping was great and it happened also in 2009.

haaayy... kung ako siguro mahihirapan akong umalis pa at iwan ang ganyang kagandang isla..
ang tahimik at sarap ng pakiramdam.. mas ok na wag open for public.. sobrang grabe ang ganda!
Nuts: Kelangan umalis eh. To face the real world. Pero babalik ako dun ulit bago sumakit ang tuhod ko sa arthritis. Sarap balikan. Sabi nga ng tour guide, masarap kapag kasama ang dyowa. pero ? yan eh.
oy, parang niyaya ako ng tubig na maligo. hay, ganda ng place. and looking at your second pic parang namiss ko bigla sa probinsya.
Eds: Kahit ako na hindi marunong maglangoy, I love beach. ewan ko nga baka sa zodiac sign yun. hehehe

Nice post. I have heard stories about Guimaras and how beautiful the island is. I wish I could go there someday. Try visit Cagayan de Oro also. Just been there and it was really awesome.
