One of the 7,000+

 

Agutaya is a small private island found south of the Guimaras Straight, off the coast of Sipalay, also famous for its beaches and fabulous villas along its cliffs.

To get there, you need land travel of 3-4 hours from Bacolod to Sipalay where a boat should be waiting for you somewhere I can not remember. A two-room bungalow with a huge porch had been installed and could house at least 15 people.

The island has no electricity. So at night, there are kerosene lamps lit.

This island is where I found the most fireflies all bunched up together in one tree as if it were Christmas.

Areas around the island are good for snorkelling and maybe diving(this is in assumption that the island is near popular divespots.)

Also, there is this big "thing", some 50 meters high where you can jump from - to the water. Insane!!
