BANTAYAN ISLAND: Is It Worth Visiting in the Philippines? (4 Day Vlog of Santa Fe, Bantayan Island)

So you may have heard of Bantayan Island not too far from Cebu city... or you may not have.... either way, in this video I'm exploring Santa Fe, the largest town in Bantayan Island.
I escaped Cebu City and travelled north by van then boat to reach Bantayan Island, a semi-well known destination here in the Philippines.
Whilst it may not be as iconic as Boracay, El Nido, Coron, etc, I can safely say the trip to Bantayan Island has been my most enjoyable out of them all.
In this video I share my reasons throughout 4 days of exploring Santa Fe in Bantayan Island.
As you'll see, I loved my time on the island and I'm delighted to share this video with you.
Special thanks to all the lovely people I met who played a big part in making this trip extra special.

    You're in Philippines, live the local life. Burgers? No. Try real Filipino food. Another vlogger living Western life instead of actually enjoying the local lifestyle... meh.

    I eat Filipino food at least 3 times a week and have done so for the last year. If I want to order a burger, I'll order a burger 👍

    You can’t tell someone what to eat and what to do 😂! It’s a free country 🇵🇭. Think before you comment. You should be thankful he lives and he’s promoting the country.
