Vanishing Island of Barobo, Surigao del Sur has so many distinct beauty that is emerging in an open sea surrounded by turquoise water and a pure fine white sand beach while looking in a distance where the sea and the sky meet. Vanishing Island wowed visitors when the low tide comes in. During low tide, the sandbar became bright as ever showing its fine white beach as it expands far, glowing closer to another island, the Turtle Island. As you stand screening its beauty from one end to the other that was radiating in large blue seas, even the sand stretches wide in knee-deep water. Similar to the white island of Camiguin but this gem of Caraga Region has its own beauty to explain different from the rest of its own kind.
This Vanishing Island of the Pacific with its jaw-dropping fine white sand that you would mistake it powder could be a strong contender against the scenery of Maldives beaches in the Indian Ocean.
