In line with the GO SOUTH Campaign, the following are what we believe to fit as the Top 3
Destinations and key signature event to be highlighted throughout the said campaign.
Britania Islands
One of Surigao del Sur’s hidden wonders are the Britania Islands located at the Municipality of
San Agustin. Composed of 24 islands and islets scattered all over Lianga Bay which is facing the
Pacific Ocean. Naked Island is one of the islands offers the fine white sand floating on top of the
sea. The largest among the rest is Boslon Island which gives a great stranded on an island feel
given its great beach and a jaw dropping scenery.
Another magnificent natural water destination is the Enchanted River of Hinatuan, Surigao del
Sur. Just looking at the crystal clear blue river from the top will mesmerize any tourist, and will
definitely render them breathless. It’s a saltwater river was deemed to be enchanted by the locals
because it is believed to be miraculous. It is around 80 feet deep and is barely long enough to be
considered a river, yet the flow attracts visitors around the world.
