In the Barangay (small village) of Macrohon, Southern Leyte, Philippines there's an small island that was made by man. It's not that big or wide island but it's 8ft tall from under the sea level. There's a rumour about this island. "It was made to cover up the main purpose of the people who made it. They said they're digging treasure here and to avoid the government will know. They made this island. After the treasurer found the treasure, they left this island."

But 10 years ago, there's a rich family bought this island and developing it until now. They built bamboo bridge, they built houses to make this island a tourist spot.


This is how the bridge looks like. The bridge will only be used if the sea is in high tide. But if not, people can go in this island through the land of the sea. Like this,

But this land is so soft that's why they must use the bridge always.

This island became popular to the people who lives in town and who lives from neighbouring town. It became popular and now accepting event's, occasion, like birthday celebration, wedding celebration and many more events. They'll use it when they don't want uninvited people will join them. They have gate here and the one who take care of this place will always ask an invitation letter.


This is the main entrance of the island.
Now, let's have a look from the outside because the island is closed if you don't contact them for an event. I'm going to show you the reception area from outside.

On the other side

I can't go near because there were too many dogs there, lol. What I'm showing is the place from far.

The man made design fro a rock.

I'm telling you that this place is nice. I experienced to be in this 5 years ago when my highschool clasmate celebrate her wedding reception in this island. The place is not hot because of many tree's inside, I think you can see it in the images. Lot of green and big trees that it's hard to see the whole area inside. But yeah, this island is awesome especially when it's high tide. You're allowed to swim here and if it's high tide the see in this part is deep. By the way they have lot of sea urchins compared to our brgy. Lot of fishes you can find here because of many mangroves in this area.

You can't see how lovely the sea because when I went here it's low tide. If it's not low tide also I'm afraid I can't take photo's from far. There's not much info how much is the payment for reservations of event's. But you can go here directly because there's a person who is in charge here and already live here.

By the way this is like a hotel also. They have small room's for travelers, food to cook and water. Ah, there's a supply of electricity here because it's not that far from the shore. So, if ever you'll be in southern leyte. You should check this one, it's near from the national road. It's 20 steps from the national road and you can see already the island. This can also help you to relax because of it's environment. Not only fish you can find but also birds here are everywhere.
