Amazing Virgin Island in Bohol, Philippines


Virgin Island in Bohol, Philippines was very beautiful. I got a chance to visit the amazing island with my kind friend by renting a boat last May 2011. On the boat while reaching the island, we could see the barsand, it's very beautiful white sand span towards the sea from the main island.


If you're lucky and come early, you still could walk on the soft and clean white sand beach. The sandbar would dissapear when the tight is high around 12:00. We berth on the main island, my friend asked me to go around the island, it's not big, but I refused it. I was attempted with the sandbar. If you need water to drink, there're some sellers who also sold seashells in the main island.


We was lucky, we arrived on the right time, so I still could walk from the main island followed the sandbar almost to the end of the path. It's quite long, I liked it very much, because the sand was very soft, I put off my sandal and asked my guide to take my pictures. When taking picture on the sandbar, as if you were walking in the middle of the sea, because it's only a white sandy line contrast with the blue of deep water.


My friend prefered to ride on the boat from the main island sailing to the sandbar. I really like to walk on the sand, unfortunately my friend asked me to go to the boat for having lunch first. We brought grilled fish and squid from the previous island, because no people living in virgin island. Our guide also brought grilled pork and sausage from the city. The fish and squid was very delicious, maybe because it's cooked from fresh materials.


After having lunch, I wanted to continue playing on the water, unfortunately it's already reached the waist, I didn't want to make my clothes wet, it's a pity I didn't wear swimsuit at that time, so I could not play on the water. I only took some pictures from different angle, it's very beautiful. Because we could not do anything else, so we decided to go back home after another half an hour. If you visit Bohol and you like beach, definitely you have to visit Virgin island before 11:00 o'clock in the morning, so you still have a chance to walk on the beautiful sand bar.
