                      NOGAS ISLAND

This island is located at Anini-y, Antique. Anyway, Nogas Island

 is for youif you are planning on snorkeling and diving. 

You can also just have a swim there but the beach itself is

 quite rocky and not at all sandy. There are huts you can rent.

 There is one changing room/toilet made of nipa.

 As of our last visit last June 9, 2016, there was 

no door to the toilet but it was still ok since the place itself was pretty isolated far from where the huts were located. And there's no fresh water available to wash up after a swim. The island caretakers were very nice. They will welcome you the moment you get off from the boat. You can also purchase drinks there. 20 pesos for a 12 oz cold coke is a fair price considering the location. There are cats who'll steal your food if you leave them unattended without cover on the table. Exploring of the whole island is fun too. Look for the oldest tree there--the balete. View the lighthouse, and, if you're a bird watcher, there are birds, big ones which i am unfamiliar with, perching on trees inside the miniforest.
