A Slice Of Paradise: Malcapuya Island in Culion, Palawan

For the second part of our island hopping adventure, we headed off to the island of Malcapuya, a secluded white sand beach in Culion, Palawan, about an hour and a half away from Coron pier.

Day 3: Boat to Malcapuya Island

But before departure, Kuya Allan dropped us off at the market to eat breakfast and buy all the needed rekados for our lunch. With a budget of 400php, we were able to purchase half a kilo of liempo, a large tuna, a kilo of banana, softdrinks, ice, charcoal, and eating utensils. What a bargain!

There were no other people except us and the caretakers when we arrived in Malcapuya Beach at 9:30am. 

From the long stretch of white sand beach to the crystal blue water with shells and corals in abundance in the shallows, it’s absolutely a slice of paradise.

We spent our time there sunbathing, swimming and walking around the scenic island, before going to the nearby Banana Island.
