Its pristine white sand beaches will compare to Boracay in its finest form. Most of the islands are no man’s land with less vegetation. Bigger islands are rocky formation along the shoreline, one distinct feature where one of the islands such as Boslon has a giant rock leaning on its side of the island while exploring the space under it.
