HUNDRED ISLAND<br />

After relaxing, swimming, eating and having fun, and of<br />

course taking lots of photographs to permanently record<br />

your fun in the sun. You might like to take the short trip<br />

to Bat Island situated just a short boat ride from Quezon<br />

Island. Bat Island, aptly named. As it is the home of many<br />

thousands of fruit bats, hanging from the trees enjoying<br />

the sun in this island paradise. Have the camera ready to<br />

take plenty of photos.<br />

The Hundred Islands<br />

Children’s Island<br />

View from Govenor’s Island<br />

With shallow waters and white sands of Children’s Island<br />

this island has a name that speaks for itself, making it<br />

perfect island for families with small children who will have<br />

an unsurpassable amount of fun and games in the pristine<br />

waters. This island can be considered as the kiddie version<br />

of Hundred Islands’ Quezon Island because there are plenty<br />

of fun activities here as well but are more suitable for kids.<br />

There are even some kayaks here with special compartments<br />

for kids. The island’s beach front itself is in kiddie size as well<br />

as it is very narrow and can accommodate very few people<br />

only. Like the other two islands, Children’s Island also has<br />

cottages and picnic huts for rent. This island has a solid<br />

and sturdy rock formation which has stood the test of time<br />

and survived the waves. There are several elevated sections<br />

with pathways and wooden fences where visitors can relax<br />

while enjoying a panoramic view of the ocean and the cool<br />

breeze.<br />

Cuenco Island<br />

The island features the Cuenco Cave, which is a shallow cave,<br />

the island is not far from the Children’s Island. Inside this<br />

cave are some smooth and light-yellowish rocks which are<br />

features of its walls. You can see how some of the limestone<br />

formations in certain are still intact surviving hundreds of<br />

years of climate changes. The cave also has a smaller opening<br />

on the opposite side of the island. The cave or as some refer<br />

to it as a tunnel, is believed to be used as one of the hide-outs
