Before you go
What you'll find
- Pink sand: crushed red organ-pipe coral mixed with white sand
- A small island only a few hundred metres across
Good to know
- Caution: It's about 11 km south of Onuk across open sea, one of the farthest islands out, so most tours skip it.
- It isn't Canimeran, an island near Buliluyan that also has pinkish sand. Blogs often mix the two up.
- Plan the trip itself with the getting-here guide and the safety guide.
