Potipot: Five Minutes Boat Ride From Highway

Potipot Island is a white sand beach island 5 minutes away from Candelaria, Zambales through a boat ride. I've been eyeing this place for quite some time and while searching for resorts that are available for stay near the island.
Some of the attractions of Potipot Island are: its white sands that completely surround the whole island, the calm clear waters, its proximity to the mainland that allows visitors to reach the island in only 5 minutes by banca, the lush vegetation and trees that provide shade along the beach (and even on the water).




If you really want to have a serine weekend, include Potipot in your list.

Way Points:

You can ride a 7-8 hour bus trip at Victory Liner at Caloocan City. Fare is around P432. It will be best if you'll get a bus bound to Sta. Cruz, Zambales. You need to get off Candelaria, Zambales where the Island is located. Alternate Route: You can take a bus bound to Olongapo City and there'd be a bus bound to Iba, Zambales or a straight Sta. Cruz trip.

From Candelaria, Zambales you can rent a boat. Fare is around P800 (good for 5pax). It will only take around 5 minutes to reach the Island. There'd be an entrance fee of either P100 or P300. Latter rate applies for overnight stay. You can set up your own tent. But if you don't have one, worry nothing as there are lots of available cottages that range from P500-P2000 depending on the cottage size. If you want cheaper weekend getaway, just set up tent.
