Visited La-aw Lagoon on a near perfect day. We had a local guide. Well worth the visit. Be prepared for a steep climb in a ravine. There are some bamboo railings but generally the climb down is not for young kids and the elderly or overweight. Well worth the effort

This was our first time to visit Kinatarcan on a day trip from Bantayan Island. Weather permitting its best to leave not later than 06.30am for the 1 1/2 hour boat ride to Kinatarcan Island. Best to take a picnic breakfast and lunch with afternoon snacks with you because there are no restaurants anywhere to be found on the island. This is a back to wilderness expierience. No shops, no pharmacy only a few small stores Laaw Laggon is a must see. Be prepared for a very steep rocky trail in a ravine going down to the lagoon. Be even more prepared for the challenging climb back up! Not for seniors! Hagdan Beach is a great picnic spot accesible by boat or some 200 steps down to the beach. Again not for Seniors or those unfit D'Clam Cave is another activity but due to blackouts the cave was closed when we visited If you enjoy a bit of adventure and like the idea of strenuous climbing Kinatarcan is a fun day excursion from the crowds
