From Manila, you can take buses going straight to Zambales. Victory Liner in Caloocan goes to Sta.Cruz stops in Daual, Candelaria, Zambales. Fare is P432.
From Daual, walk from mainland to shore and take a boat ride going to the island (5-min travel). The island is located roughly 1 km from the mainland shore of Uacon, Candelaria, Zambales.
I spent about 1050 for the whole trip (my friend took care of food!)
What's good about the island?
- Source of water (which is important to me!)
- Good signal (Globe, Sun, Smart)
- Places where to pitch tents
- Renting tables and nipa huts
- Comfort rooms! (which is really comforting to me!)
- Grilling area
- Trees, tree houses for shade
- Clear waters
- A bus ride away from Manila
- Day visit is possible
