MASBATE ISLAND HOPPING 2017 & 2018
Looking for a CRYSTAL CLEAR SEA and UNCROWDED Beaches? Then, go for island hopping in Masbate. There are a lot of island routes to choose.
We chose the most popular island hopping routes where we went to (accordingly):
HALEA NATURE PARK
BURUBANGKASO ROCK FORMATION
CATANDAYAGAN FALLS
and BUNTOD REEF SANCTUARY. SANDBAR
We rent a perfect boat for Island Hopping that can accommodate for maximum 20 persons.
(They also have a boat that can accommodate for 30 persons)
You can rent a boat in Rendezvous Resort in Punta Nursery, Masbate. Make sure to have a reservation atleast 3 days before your outing.
How much the rental? - 8,000 PESOS (Eight Thousand Pesos) for 20 pax
12,000 PESOS (Twelve Thousand Pesos) for 30 pax
It was quite expensive but worth it. The boat itself was well made, huge and SAFE! The staffs are very friendly and accommodating.
Where were the starting point?
- RENDEZVOUS RESORT
PS. They have an Entrance Fee. 20 pesos I think.
We set off at 7 o'clock in the morning.

Next, a well known Rock Formation in Masbate. It may looked small in the picture but personally it was very high. But the view from the top in every angle was very amazing. (See the pictures below)
Perfect beach to swim, play and relax.

LAST STOP: BUNTOD REEF MARINE SANCTUARY & SANDBAR
Last but not the least, a popular sandbar in Masbate that just across the city.
First, we went back first to the city to refill fuel. It just took us like 10-15 minutes from the City to the Sandbar.
I say, a perfect place for sunset with a perfect horizon. Just wow!
We head back at 6 o'clock in the afternoon.
What an amazing tour! Amazing places! Amazing nature! Just perfect!
