Potipot Island
Potipot is an island off the shore of Candelaria in Zambales. The island is a very small patch of land with white sand and surrounded by gentle waters. It is easily reached by a 5-hour drive and a 5-minute boat trip from mainland Zambales.
Getting There By Bus
Take a Victory Liner Bus bound for Sta. Cruz, Zambales at the Pasay, España or Caloocan terminal. Ask the conductor to drop you at Dawal in Uacon in Candelaria. Call the Victory Liner office to ask for the specific route and for the last departure time.
Driving To Potipot
From Balintawak, Quezon City take the North Luzon Expressway, exit at San Fernando and drive towards Olongapo City. Enter SBMA and exit at the Kalaklan gate. Go straight to the town of Castillejos until the San Narciso junction. Turn right at the San Narciso junction to enter the town proper and then pass by the towns San Felipe, Cabangan, Iba and Masinloc. After Masinloc head to Candelaria but use the national road instead of heading to the town proper. Along the national road you’ll see the signs of Dawal, Sunbloom and other resorts of Uacon.

Accomodation
There are no permanent structures at Potipot for overnight accomodations. You could either pitch tents or stay at the mainland’s beach resorts if you plan to stay in Zambales for the night:
Sunbloom Resort

Dawal Resort

Isla Vista Resort

Best Time To Go
The best time of the year to go would either be the very start of the summer months and early June. The months of April and May are peak seasons, it will be very difficult to book rooms and the island is very crowded during this time.
Things To Bring and Do
It tends to be very hot in the island during noon and early afternoon. Bring lots of drinking water, cap or sarong and sunblock.
Though there are trees with branches extending to the water that give shade, bring a tent if you are staying in the island for the night.
If you plan on chillin’ out by the shore, bring a hammock, books or magazines, playing cards, frisbees, an ipod and speakers (though we don’t highly suggest this since it might bug other people).
Potipot is also an excellent skimboarding destination. The almost powdery sand allows the skimboard to glide smoothly along the shore.
Though there are no swanky hotels, restaurants and fruit shake stands, Potipot is the next best thing to Boracay on this part of Luzon. You can hang out, relax in peace, walk along the shore (and around the island for less than an hour!) and plainly enjoy the company of your friends.

Is there fresh water sources on the island? we are planning to stay overnight. does it neccessary to have a tent? tnx
Mar 31st, 2009

@Mark and @Hamill, yes there is a water pump in potipot but it is not good for drinking – just for rinsing and washing. It’s best if you could bring drinking water to the island – lots of drinking water because it gets so hot and humid during the afternoon.

how much it wud cost per person to stay overnight on the island? I alreADY contacted Dawal, Sunbloom, Del mar, and Isla vista no other available room for april 10. Or is there any transient houses around the area where we can leave our things? tnx.
Apr 1st, 2009

@Hamill, the overnight camping fee is around 100 pesos a night. This is the rate last year (2008). I’m not sure if the fee has increased this year though.

BOAT RIDE FARE FROM MAINLAND TO ISLAND OF POTIPOT?
FEES OR EXTRA CHARGES?

Hi,
Please advise the following:
1.) How much Boat ride fare from mainland to Island of Potipot?
2.) How much is the entrance fee and cottages (overnight) good for ten person.
3.) Do we need to bring food or there is a resto in there?

E and A
Last weekend (2-3 May 2009), we went back to Potipot (and of course, we stayed in Sun Bloom). There were a few things we noticed:
1. There were a lot more trash compared to the last time we went there. [To the tourists, kindly bring your own trash bag and throw your trash bag when you get back to your resort].
2. People were so amazed to see live sea stars (a.k.a. starfishes) that they were taking them from their habitat and putting them under the sun to dry. [Please don't take those creatures home. They're meant to stay in the sea. If you keep taking sea stars, Potipot eventually would have none.]
3. People were stepping on the live corals. [Please don't step on the live corals, fishes live there and they lay their eggs there. If you keep stepping on them, they will eventually die. No corals = no fishes]
4. A lot of people were planning to catch the fishes swimming in the shallow waters. [Please don't try to catch them. Let Potipot keep those fishes.]
5. If people are feeding the fishes, please don’t swim where the fishes are. You can check them out underwater but please don’t swim right through the fishes. You’re disturbing them.
To the owner of the island (if you’re reading this), kindly do something about these. We’re paying Php50 (day tour) or Php100 (overnight) to be on your island. You can put posters/tarps on the island to remind people what not to do. You can impose rules like these. You can even ask the rangers to penalize tourists who do these horrible things.

@Levi:
1) The boat ride costs 400 pesos for around 5 people.
2) The “entrance fee” to the island is 50 pesos when you only stay for the day and 100 pesos when you intend to camp out overnight.
3) There are no restaurants on the island. I advise you to bring packed lunch to the island. Im not familiar with other resorts in Dawal but Sunbloom resort will gladly prepare packed lunch for you, given you already have the raw ingredients from the market. You can also buy “lutong ulam” from the town market, which is a 40-minute drive or jeepney ride away from Dawal.
@E and A:
Sad to hear these things are happening in Potipot. City people just have to reminded not to be over-enthusiastic on things not usually found in the urban environment. I think resort owners in the area should also remind visitors not to litter the island and to leave the marine creatures alone, since it is their livelihood that’ll be affected if these actions from visitors continue.

very nice place..hehe just been here last May 14-16
1200 – overnight stay (12pm check-in and 11am check-out in sunbloom)
346 – bus fare until uacon from sampaloc victory liner station
400 – boat ride to potipot island (max of 7 persons)
50 – entrance fee in the island (100 if overnight)
300 – for the food..there’s no restaurant in sunbloom what we did is we ate at dawal..hehe over the bakod..
FYI:
sunbloom is fully booked for the whole weekends of MAY and JUNE. so you better call the resort first before going there.
note:
may CR na dun saka poso..may tindahan na din ng yosi softdinks, C2 and fit & right..but there’s no electricity..but I think some time soon meron nah..kc may generator na silang nilagay in the middle of the island..
I also notice that they are burning the garbage which is not good.. =( what I did is dinala q ulit pabalik ung mga basura nmin ska nmin tinapon sa trashcan..
May 19th, 2009
Johara
Add lang ako regarding:
garbage matters: may mga pwede namang paglagyan ng basura dun sa island.madami mga nakapalibot na blue or green drum may takip naman so ok lang.
water source: may 2 water pump dun. ung isa medyo maalat alat ung isa walang lasa.
cr: may nakita kaming 4 na cr cubicle.
tutulugan sa island: you can bring your tents at dun magcamping or if marami rami kayo or shortage sa tent may mga kubo din naman n available ung iba with rooms pa 500- 1500 ang price
bawal magbonfire.hindi daw allowed
may mga tao na namumulot ng shells sa beach at mga bato.please dont take these with you. this is not yours to keep. d kasama sa 50-100 na bayad natin ang pagkuha ng mga ito.
noise- wag sana masyado mainggay.nung andun kami may mga nagteteam building ata.they stayed for a couple of hours lang naman however a lot of groups were disturbed.
boat ride namin 400 good for 6 people plus one bangkero with a lot of our stuffs including bags,tents, and cooler.
may jelly fish nung nagpunta kami.makati pero ilang part lang ng water meron.
super enjoy ang picture taking.

@Maimai Peak months are April to May… from June wala na masyado tao. Im not sure kung papayag yung caretaker na 100 pesos fee for two nights. What I understand is 100 pesos for 1 night’s stay lang sa island. Regarding the food, pwede kayo bumili sa market then iwan nyo sa resort para ipa-luto then ipahatid nyo nalang every mealtime… I just don’t know how they’ll charge for this

hi guys! i’ve been to potipot last april 24 and me and my friends stayed at sunbloom resort..
potipot is the best piece of heaven you’ll ever see.. but there has been some deforestation happening at potipot, which we found very very odd…
plus, if you guys intend to stay at sunbloom.. iisa lang ang videoke… better rent it straight away at kumakaen yun ng coins!

@Sarah it’s an island five minutes away from Uacon, Candelaria Zambales. Merong resorts sa Candelaria na pwede kayo mag-stay tapos hire nalang kayo bangkero papunta Potipot Island. 5 minutes boat ride lang, mula Uacon tanaw na agad ang Potipot.

@Prue The best time would be on the first week of June, by that time the locals have had enough of beach trips. It’s also more or less sunny during this time since the typhoon season is still yet to start

We went there last January of this year. We just parked our car at Sunbloom Resort, we paid 100 pesos only then went to the Island itself, the boat ride costs 400 pesos good for 5 persons. It’s just 5 mins away from the resort. Overnight stay at the Island. They have water pumps and toilets there. No electricity. Not ideal to stay for more than 2 days. It gets super hot at noon time so be sure to bring sunblock. There are now cottages there but I am not sure how much or if it’s for rent because we just brought our tent.
It’s a nice place.

@Lhota: Just came back from Potipot and the place is awesome! Its true that 200 is now the increased entrance fee. Caretakers said the island is now owned by Lucio Tan. But i guess sulit naman ang 200 db? At my plan daw etong gawing private ni lolo lucio kay guys, hurry! experience potipot habang open to public pa sya!

GUYS,
When we were there in March, sobrang baboy ng mga bumibisita sa Potipot, may mga blue big drums na nga sa paligid, iniiwan pa nila ang basura nila sa shore at tubig. Hubby and I even picked up some of their trashes just to clean up. Sobrang ganda ng place, pero walang regard ung iba. Kawawa ung caretakers dampot ng basura nila, malaking hassle din kya un for them db? CLEAN AS YOU GO! Basta lng makaswimming, e okay na. tsk tsk…
I super agree, LEAVE NO TRACE.

Just got back from the beautiful island of Potipot, it was great!!!
Current fees are:
Entrance per person P100. P200 if staying overnight
free use of picnic tables (but very limited)
Small huts are rented out for P500/day
Big huts costs P1500/day
You can bring your own tents
There are six toilets, 3 female and 3 male (queue gets long especially after lunch)
Newly constructed treehouse is for the sole use of its owner/guests (Gen. Ebdane–he bought the island a few years ago)
Boat fare varies (from boatman to boatman) we tried looking for those who charges only P400 round trip but wala kami nakita. The average now is P100 per person/round trip.
The owner of the island designated a eastern most tip as the island where boats can dock to unload and pickup passengers. That way, hindi na naiistorbo yung mga guests sa beach and madali nang mabilang nung caretaker ang mga dumarating.

who owns potipot? entrance fee of 100 and overnight of 200, where the money goes ?
Nice island, we suggest to have a nice planning on that land, strategic location for toilets, existing tree house is okay, but if I were to choose I will not let it built.
always protect our mother earth not that landlords!!!

murang gastos papuntang potipot.
1. mag five star bus.
2. mag overnight sa Island php200
3. day trip sa Island Php 100
4. Mag paluto kay aling elvie, ( hanapin nyo sya sa likod ng Dawal resort may tindahang maliit, sabihin nyo kilala nyo si allan)
5. Boat ride PHP 400 6-7 person , hanapin nyo naman yung asawa ni aling elvie.
6. Kung gusto nyo naman ng ibang sarap ng luto , pumunta naman kayo sa ilog, kung tawagin nila floating resto, sa harao ng petron lang yun, duon mura rin. mas okay doon sa tanghali,
kung may katanungan pa kayo, sumulat lang kayo ulit dito. salamat, san ako ay nakatulong sa budget nyo.

To Niah: you can text aleng Minda (owner ng Three brothers boats) 09393233459
btw: Banca rent is Php 400.00 for maximum of 6 people and Entrance fee sa island is Php 300/each for overnight. Bring flash light!!!! light source and lots of COLD liquids. You can buy food at Dawal Restaurant.
Para mas tipid at fun bring your tent. But if you intent to rent cottage it’s small huts 500 for overnight the big one’s hmm 1500 ata also if you can bring battery powered fan– basta fan mainet kasi.
Pero since late na kayo dadating hmmm baka wala ng cottage available at that time. Sabi nung caretaker sa amin pag saturday around 200 na tao ang napapadpad sa island.

hello.. we are going there on first week of september we are more than 20 people.. i just wanna ask if it is possible to go there even without tent??.. coz we are just planning to rent cottages can we just sleep at the cottages that we are going to rent??.. how much really is the entrance fee there coz some are saying that it is 200 some are 100 and the other is 300.. i wanna know the answer if they can still accomodate us even we arrive there late and the beach is already crowded coz we will start here in manila and it is not easy for us to find a new one if they will not be able to accomodate us and it is not easy for us to travel all the way from manila up to there.. so i hope somebody can answer this asap.. tnx..

I’ve been to Potipot Island just yesterday. Entrance fee rates on island cost P100 for stay during the day and P300 for overnight stay. Cottage rental fee, for those who want to stay overnight, costs P500. Roundtrip boat fee costs P400 good for 6 persons. The place is great! It’s clean, safe, and preserved well. I will really enjoy coming back there.

we went to Potipot Island last March 19. We rode Victory liner bus at Caloocan which costs Php432/pax. 11pm ng March 18 sana ang sasakyan namin kaso, naubusan ng slot. Luckily, nagdagdag sila ng byahe ng 12:10am ng March 19. We arrived in the mainland around 5am. Magpapaluto sana kami kay aling Minda (a resident there which lives just in front of Dawal Beach resort) ng food pero wala daw sya stock so we had to go to the market pa in Sta. Cruz which is around 30 mins away from Candelaria. At around 7am, we are ready to go to Potipot island. We rode a boat which costs Php400 for 6 pax (hatid-sundo na yun sa island). 5-min boat ride lang yun. The entrance fee sa island is Php100 kapag daytime and Php300/pax kapag overnight. The cottage price starts from Php500. May central grilling station dun. Pwede magluto pero bawal ang bonfire. Tinext namin si aling minda na sunduin kami aroung 8am kinabukasan. Then we waited for the bus sa main road. Mejo matagal dumating yung bus. Luckily eh may triathlon event nung time na yun so naaliw kami kahit papano.
Positive: The beach is so great! napakaganda ng view, tahimik at malinis din. Others say that mas maganda ang beach dito kesa sa anawangin. Malakas ang signal ng lahat ng networks dun. even Suncell!
Negative: Some part ng beach eh puro seaweeds pero mas fine yung sand sa part na yun. and the Public CR sucks! hindi masyado namamaintain. Since wala ding kuryente dun, madilim na ng around 8pm. kung wala kang dalang flash light, wala ka na ibang magagawa kundi matulog o titigan ang stars. hehe.. Yung water din pala sa mga gripo eh nagsstop around 8pm. bubuksan nlng ulit yung motor around 7am.

How about renting my Toyota Innova for a maximum of 7 pax, and I will take you to the different stops you need to maximize your vacation in and around Potipot Island? I have relatives there so I know the place pretty well. I can lend you my tents for free. After a day in Potipot, I can take you to a nearby resort where you can rent air-conditioned rooms for as low as P500 a night. Going to different places just to buy things you need won’t be that much of a hassle unlike waiting for public rides which wastes much of your time. Text me at 09236110654 or email me at pradoztek@hotmail.com and let us make the arrangement. This is ChrizP at your service.

Ang ganda ng beach sa Potipot island Super enjoy. Nilibot namin yung buong isla palibot as in iba iba makikita mong view mas maganda yung bandang gilid kasi makikita mo talaga intact pa yung beach as in di nagagalaw masyado.Meron din ako nakitang starfish sa gilid hehehe pero di ko kinuha kasi baka mamatay pag inuwi ko. Masarap ang tubig very fine yung sand. About dawal enjoy ako sa tulugan comportable kasi at higit sa lahat masarap ang food nila. May Swimming Pool din, Live bands sa Gabi,Disco, Billards,Basketball (Halfcourt),
Sarap magbonding sa Dawal, May tshirt din sila binebenta as souvenir 250 pesos. Mangga na napakatamis.
Ang pinakamasaya yung mamimili ka na ng Mangga sa Palengke 35 per kilo and Tamis sobra. hehehe
Highly recommend to stay in Dawal and Going to Potipot is one of the best event . I m sure babalikan ko pa ang dawal baka next year. ang sarap kasi ulitin

Kagagaling lang namin sa Potipot island and we’ve stayed sa Sunbloom resort. Nakakawalang gana ang bakasyon mo kung sa Sunbloom resort pupunta dahil lahat may bayad! hahahah! hihingi ka ng thrash bag kahit 1 piece lng sisingilin ka. kulang na lng bawat lakad mo singilin ka! d mo maeenjoy sa gabi dahil 12am sinasara na nila ung resort so no choice ka kaya dun ka lng sa tables nila. Sa mga pupunta sa Potipot wag kayu mg stay sa Sunbloom mabbwiset lang kau sa Staff nila na si Allan.

I hope someone will do something about the ecosystem at Potipot Is. ASAP!
The number of visitors should be regulated. Their behavior too should be regulated. Irresponsible and ignorant tourists = ecological disaster.
I just got back from Apo Island, Dumaguete. Before it became an ecological disaster in the 80′s, the local government declared the island as a “Marine Sanctuary.” And its natural beauty is ensured to last for decades more.

We went to potipot last week of April 2011 via public transportation. Stayed at the island for almost 2 days.
We took the bus going to Uacon, Zambales (Victory Liner in Sampaloc) 11:00PM trip (last trip) 436 pesos each. 4 to 5 hours travel time going to Uacon, we were there around 430AM. Ask the driver to drop you off at Dawal Resort, ito kase ung kalye na directly papunta sa beach where you will ride the boat going to potipot. ** you have to reserve your seats, kung mag oonline reservation kayo, if i remember correctly, victory liner requires at least 8 days ata for reservation kung less than 8 days before your trip, you have to go there to buy tickets. check nyo yung website nila. Basta dont forget to reserve seats kase nagkaubusan talaga nung time na umalis kame.
Boat going to potipot: 400 Pesos roundtrip (group of 3 kame) charge goes up depending on the number of passengers. I think 400 Pesos is their minimum rate. Less than 5 minutes, nasa potipot ka na. pag naubusan kayo ng water or something na kailangan bilhin sa kabilang island, you will be charged 150 pesos for “pabili” so make sure complete lahat ng gamit nyo
Potipot: 100 day / 300 overnight. I suggest get the name and remember the face of the person na maninigil sa inyo. Anyways, pagbaba nyo pa lang naman ng boat lalapitan na kayo agad for payment kse the boat docks sa tapat nung kubo nung caretaker. Kame kse nag camp sa kabilang side ng island and nilapitan kame ng isang guy asking if we paid already, baka daw kse tumawid kame going to island and sa kabilang side kame bumaba. Cottage is 1500 a night ung malaki na un na meron room, walang cr ha, and wala un kuryente. i dont suggest na mag cottage kayo kase sayang lang ang pera, wala rin kase ammenities ung cottage na for rent nila eh. Kame, we brought our own tent kase. If you plan na daytour lang kayo, then you have to book sa mga resorts like, dawal, sunbloom, isla vista etc, yang 3 resorts na yan ang pinakamalapit sa potipot. rates are 1500 up. search nyo na lang sa net ung website. For me, bitin ang day tour sa potipot…
There are restrooms in the island with water naman, although there are times na pinapatay yung pump. Yung poso naman eh open 24×7 lol.
Things to bring:
Water – lots of it! mainit kase iinom ka ng iinom for sure, saka pang luto. I brought 10 liters of water, kulang eh kse we cooked all our meals sa island. Tip: Si aling minda nagbebenta ng water! Distilled water na, so di mo na kailangan dalhin yung water from Manila to Zambales. 150 ata yung pinakalamaki na water container na de gripo, tapos may deposit lang pero refundable naman. Sobrang convenient na sa kanya ka na lang buy ng water and may boat din yung husband nya so todo kontrata na kayo kay aling Minda, nagtitinda din sya ng ice, super sweet zambales mangoes, saka liquor… So i suggest na kontakin nyo si Ate Minda talaga when going to potipot.09393233459. sya rin susundo sa inyo sa kanto ng street pagbaba nyo ng bus
for food naman…nagdala lang kame ng mga iihawin, prito prito… nagdala kame ng portable gas stove ung butane ang gamit.. tapos for grilling naman, namulot lang kame ng kahoy, kase wala kame dala uling hehe, meron naman nabibili kay aling minda eh.. pero nag nature escapade kase talga kame kaya nangaso kame ng kahoy…
going home: make sure na sa victory liner pa lang tanungin nyo na kung ano oras ang last trip ng pa manila… kase nagpapalit sila ng oras ng byahe.. when we were there, last trip was 430pm going back to manila (fare is 436 pesos going to monumento) magaantay lang kayo ng bus sa highway. Kame nagpunta pa kame ng sta. cruz zambales kase walang bus na dumadaan sa labas ng dawal, just to find out na wala na trip going back to manila and the last trip was cancelled. so we went to iba, zambales and dun kame nag bus pa manila.
and pls… dont leave your trash behind
planning to go back to potipot soooon!

May iba pa po kayong option maliban sa resort nila Grace Armada na yan. May camping area po sa harap ng isla kung saan mas malamig at may mga cottage din. Nakapunta na ba kayo ng Anawangin or Nagsasa cove? Parang ganun din ang style. Mahangin din at mas maganda ang Magalawa Island hindi naman sa nagyayabang…
Kung gusto niyo pong i-try na pumunta tawagan niyo po ako sa Manila at tutulungan ko po kayong magcoordinate sa caretaker na isla na uncle ko din na si Uncle Mulo. Ito po yung landline number ko sa Maynila (02)983 0432 or sun number 09222688111 or smart number 09475181409 hanapin niyo lang po si Raymond (ako po yun).
Ito po ang presyuhan doon sa campsite :
Boatpick up (2 way)
– 100/pax-kung galing luan
– 200/pax-kung galing masinloc
Entrance fee 100\pax overnight,
Cottage 1000\night (kasya 5pax)
– If you like all Package Foods,Entrance, Boat Ride,Cottage, and also Van pwede rin po..
– Bonfire ( 100 )
Kasama na po sa entrance fee ang paggamit ng cr at maintenance ng lugar. Ingat lang po na huwag magkalat masyado kasi po maliit lang po na isla yun at mahirap kung magka garbage-problem. You will be spending about 300 or less for food siguro. Maraming nabibilhan ng pagkain sa loob ng island. Puwede rin po kayong magpaluto for a small fee. No available rental of snorkel/mask/fins dun for now so its a good idea to invest on a good set nalang. Wala pa rin po available na rental ng tent pero malapit na po. Mag inquire nalang po kayo kung may available na pagtawag ninyo. Kung magdadala po kayo ng sarili ninyong tent ay libre na po ang puwesto kasi po kasama na po sa entrance fee yun kaya entrance fee nalang at boatride nalang ang babayaran ninyo.
Ang puwesto na kung san nakatayo ang resort nila grace armada ay may problema kasi lumalabas na nagsquat lang sila dun.Dahil dito tuwing pumupunta ang may ari ng isla na si madam L.Ruiz ay pinapasara nila pang samantala ang resort nila Grace Armada. Dahil dito ay kailangan mag ingat kayo lalo na kung hinihingan kayo ng deposit ni Grace Armada. Kung magkabulilyaso tulad ng nabanggit ko ay hindi niyo na makukuha ang deposit niyo.
