💡 Tips
- Access to exclusive resorts often requires advanced booking or a member's endorsement.
- Drive through the Kaybiang Tunnel; the view stop just past the tunnel gives a great photo opportunity.
- Bring snorkeling gear as protected coves like Santelmo offer animated marine life and coral reefs.
- Schedule your visit during weekdays to avoid the heavy weekend traffic from Metro Manila.
- Public ATMs are scarce inside the resort complexes; bring enough cash for tips and local purchases.
