Sombrero Island is a great quick Stop over after a great early morning Scuba, Free dive and Snorkel. It is near Batok dive site or Sombrero Coral Garden Dive site. You can view colorful Corals that are only 3 Meters deep. The Bathroom situation is an issue though as there are no toilets unlike Maricaban. But the view is fantastic and the small island feel with its white rocky sand, is something we love going back to again and again.

Visited last march 2021, it is not worth the price you pay for on top of boat ride expense. - sand although white is full of bleached corals and not made entirely on fine white sands. Most of the sand is a mixture or pebbles and bleach corals on top of grainy white sand. Hurts your feet a lot so you can't walk straight without having to avoid some spiky corals. You need to pay 200 pesos per head, that's a rip off considering you can't do anything else on the island. Not that scenic, not good shore area. I suggest you go to Sepoc beach over this if you only have a some money to spend on a single boat ride. Not worth the boat trip and expense, also reef section at the back of the island is just populated by small fishes and not that much variation. Not worth the boat ride and extra expense not even picturesque compared to other islands nearby.

Very clean and beautiful beach. The beach itself is quite small and if there are more than two or three batches it would get crowded. We did some snorkelling there and there was a lot of life towards the deeper part of the beach. So you need to be a good swimmer or wear a life jacket. We took a big boat to get there, we paid P3000 and P200 entrance fee for the island. The beach itself is a shell beach but does look like a white beach which it is not. The reason for rating is the pathetic condition of the washroom. Its hard to even change in that washroom. Its beyond disgusting.

Small but it has a nice white sand beach. It has limited shaded places though so prepare to get tan when visiting this island. There are no comfort rooms here and overnight camping is also a no go. Best to just visit this place and enjoy snorkeling.

Very nice island. Water is crystal clear, there are a lot of sea shells and coral on the shore so bring water shoes if you have one. Cottage has a fee of 200 pesos
