Our Bantayan Island Adventure

Bantayan Island is located north of Cebu Province. From the heart of Cebu City, its about two and a-half hour bus ride going to the port of Hagnaya for less than 100pesos. Then another one hour travel via a ferry boat to the port of Bantanyan for less than 150pesos.



When we went there last June 2009, we stayed at Playa Estrella Beach Resort located at Barangay Santa Fe which is only about 5 minutes ride via a tricycle from the port.




Unlike any other popular island beaches in the Visayas like Panglao Bohol and Boracay, Bantayan Island has still under-developed beaches so its still not so over crowded and commercialized which makes the place a perfect place to relax, meditate and enjoy the clean blue waters and great powdery white sands.



Other well-known places in Bantayan that is only a walking distance from Playa Estrella is the Sugar Beach Resort, Budyong Beach Resort and the Ugtong Cave.
