Capones Island
An island with a figure of a man’s face on its side, white sand and green-clear waters compose one of the hidden beauty of the Paradise Philippines…..the Capones Island! It is also known for an old lighthouse built during the Spanish era which will bring you back in time for sure.
With a 5 hours drive from Manila to San Antonio, Zambales…going to Capones Island is a bit tiring but one of a kind adventure. It is located exactly as part of Barangay Pundaquit in San Antonio, Zambales. From the shores of Pundaquit, it’s a 15-minute boat ride before reaching the island’s beachfront.
There’s no resorts or any type of establishments on the island, giving you the feel of complete nature. All you can do is to take some walk around the island, take pictures on its scenic views, feel the waters by doing some snorkelling or swimming, just make sure to bring your own stuffs.

Yes they’ll wait for you. Usually the boat ride costs around 30-50pesos/head but not really sure as when I go there, my fare is free coz I have some relatives who owns a resort in Pundaquit.

There are big ones like Nora’s resort while others are smaller ones which usually owned by residents of the Baranggay, not fully developed but good enough to give you relaxing experiences.
