I was giving my computer enough rest and give myself a break – at least for this summer. I initially considered going to a small and peaceful island where I can contemplate, can write using my pen and notebook and can sit under tree shades while silently reciting my life’s poetic lines.
But instead of heading to a solitary island, I entertained the thoughts of spending my holy week to Bantayan Island.
It is mistaken that Bantayan celebrates fiesta during holy week. No fiesta! But the festive mood of the island during summer season especially during holy week is too contagious that many are dragged to visit and experience real summer fun in the island!
Just an FYI. Sts. Peter and Paul Parish in Bantayan town to clarify misleading statements that it's fiesta in Bantayan during holy week.
In Sta. Fe town, Bantayan Island, several resorts lined up along its fine white sand beach.
From Sta. Fe, I headed towards Bantayan town. Seeing fresh catch amazed me.
At night the shoreline has transformed into a big party dome. And of course my favorite beer is there! Summer fun is never complete without Red Horse Beer.
On the day I left the island paradise, I whisper my heart – I’ll be back.

To Michael,
Ride Taxi from Airport to North Bus Terminal in Mandaue then ride a bus to the northern port and lastly ride a barge to the island. Please see the link below:
