Capones Island, Camara Island and Anawangin Cove

Capones Island on the left, Camara Island on the right.

Eager to bury my feet in the sand and plunge in the water, we sailed away to the nearby beaches of Capones Island, Camara Island and Anawangin Cove. The two islands are visible from the shores of Pundaquit, about 15 minutes away. Anawangin, on the other hand, is about 30 minutes away.

Our first stop is Capones Island. I was pleasantly surprised to see the beautiful white sand beach and turquoise waters of this island. Definitely better than the Pundaquit beach. Unfortunately, there are no resorts here so most of the people just visit for a few hours coming from Pundaquit. There were few tents in one corner so it might be allowed to camp out in the island.
