Hello everyone!
This is vanishing island located somewhere in Bicol Philippines. This is one of a much talk of the town tourist destination because of its uniqueness. Sometimes , you will see this island, sometimes not.. It vanishes during high tide and appears during low tide.
I'm glad I was able to witness how it slowly appeared and vanished.

@myhuka Maybe.. but that island is just a small and almost everyday it vanishes so no one can stay there that long when you get there be sure that your rented motorized banca will not leave you or else nobody will save you there

yeah maybe but not all of them can be reached by human where you can stay, enjoy the sand in the middle of the ocean.

yeah! we travelled more or less 30 to 40. minutes to reach that island. and when we get there we waited for an hour before the island totally appeared. So we waited at the motorized banca.

I've never seen that island before. Well that's because I haven't been to Bicol. But I sure wish to see that place sometime.

It's not that popular yet because it's not yet developed.
Some are scared to go there because of the distance, plus its kinda expensive to rent a motorized banca to reach the island. Also you must wait for a good timing.
