The Gibitngil's underwater landscape is like a rainbow of color. Put on your snorkel and take in the ocean's embrace while you unwind. Floating above coral gardens, you will see schools of neon-bright fish, beautiful jelly fishes, and clownfish having a good time. It seems as though you are swimming in liquid sunshine since the water is so pristine. If you want to visit the island don't forget to use or bring an underwater camera to record these events so that your memories will last a lifetime. Unfortunately none of us had an underwater camera on our trip, but the photos we shot nonetheless convey how happy we were.

The island it self offers us a chance to simply pause for a while, take a deep breathe, and appreciate life.

As the sun goes down we all hop aboard to a traditional Filipino boat also known as “bangkas” the vessel was made out of woods, though it was made out of woods but it was still sturdy.

We all gathered around to make new friends—and set sail. The boat party begins! Imagine swaying to island beats, sipping alcoholic drinks and coconut juice, and laughing under a sky painted in pinks and oranges.
