Discover Potipot Island in Zambales!
Warm breeze and warm placid waters hail
travelers to this pleasant and calm little tropical island off coast of the town
of Candelaria in the northern part of Zambales. Plainly meaning “small white
island”, Potipot Island boasts of lush array of coconut, mango, kamachile and
talisay trees, coral shells, hermits’ crabs, starfishes, and the most
spectacular sunsets ever witnessed in this side of town. And if the weather is
just right, dolphins will honor you with their presence. This untamed and
untouched island makes an ideal camping and picnic spot.One such place is suited with Candelaria and is called Potipot
Island. It’s the nearest island from mainland Zambales where tourists or
travelers can simply rent a boat from any of the resorts.After a 15 minute boat ride from the shore, I found myself on a
small and uninhabited Potipot Island, an unspoiled haven that is completely
surrounded with cream sand beaches and filled with trees. Many have enjoyed
spending a day here, basking around the sun, enjoying its waters and solitude
it brings.
Roaming around the entire island only took me 30 minutes where
every inch of the shore is covered by the same scream-sand beach. Taking a
closer look, I marveled at the distinct, pink-tainted shoreline that I haven’t
seen anywhere else before. Potipot Island owes this to the rose-tinted corals
shed and washed along its shores, adding charm that makes Potipot Island unique
from other islands.As there are only trees and sand in Potipot Island, tourists who
want to experience its grandeur can stay at resorts in mainland Zambales and
rent a boat to take them to the island. Tourists can claim the island for a day
and reflect on Potipot island’s waters. Commune with nature and take in all the
beauty of what an unspoiled island brings, for it offers a rare experience one
would not normally find or afford.
