Bantayan Island 

is a small island off the coast of northern Cebu. Don’t

be fooled by this sleepy fishing village, the beaches of this humble
island exude the same charm and beauty as the famous Boracay Island.
The best part is, Bantayan Island is not as commercialized and crowded
as Boracay. If you want a relaxing vacation by the beach and witness
one of the most beautiful sunsets, Bantayan Island won’t disappoint
you.
Bantayan Island is blessed with several sprawling white-sand beaches
and calm azure waters. Most of the beaches in Bantayan Island are
within resorts or owned privately, but they are accessible to the public
for a small fee.
You also don’t need to check in at any of the resorts to enjoy
the beaches in Cebu. It's one of the best tourist spots on Bantayan
Island.
Bantayan Island's Kota Beach is one of the best beaches in the
Philippines. It features a sandbar and a lagoon that makes a perfect
spot for wading in and sunbathing. Paradise Beach, on the other hand,
is a serene stretch of white sand beach that features beautiful rock
formations. 
Bantayan Island also boasts two natural cave pools, the Ogtong Cave
and the Sto. Niño Cave. A natural cold spring feeds both caves, so you
can expect chilly water that's great for cooling off after a morning of
beach-hopping.
