Bulog Dos Island

Island Easy island sandbar viewpoint outer-islands photography

Bulog Dos is a small island known for its beautiful sandbar that extends at low tide and a short hilltop trail with panoramic views over the surrounding islands. The sandbar is similar to Snake Island in El Nido: a ribbon of sand connecting the main island to a rocky outcrop.

The hilltop viewpoint (5-minute climb) offers 360-degree views of the turquoise waters and neighboring islands. On a clear day, it's one of the best photo spots in Coron. The beach itself has calm, shallow water perfect for swimming.

Bulog Dos is part of the outer island tours and sees fewer visitors than the main circuit.

  1. Bulog Dos is the snorkelling stop on the Island Escapade tour, usually taken between Malcapuya and Banana Island.
  2. Boats leave the Coron town wharf in the morning and the southern islands are 1.5 to 2 hours away, so this is a full day trip.
  3. The draw is a narrow white sandbar that emerges at low tide and links two islets, so the view depends heavily on the tide when your boat arrives.
  4. There is very little shade and no real facilities, so treat it as a short swim stop rather than a place to settle in.

Local tip
Climb to the viewpoint first for the panoramic photo, then come down to swim. Visit at low tide for the full sandbar. Quick 5-minute climb.
