Touring the Perimeter of Amanpulo

By June 6, 2013 Travel No Comments

After that heavy lunch, I asked James to take a different tour of the island.  The perimeter of the island is around 6 kilometers.  So we decided to do half! haha!!  So we walked through this secret passage from the Villa

and leads you to another world called paradise 🙂 I would not say it has the same white and powdery sand as Boracay but it is a beautiful island – a peaceful one.  For that brief moment, you have it to yourself to look at and savor

Starfish 🙂

There’s a bunch of these near the shore so you have to go further for clearer water – which I am afraid to do 🙂

Peace and quiet- I just like to look at this

Behind those greens are villas but from the shore you cannot see anything except maybe the tip of the villa

It’s a bit harder to walk the beach because your feet sink into the sand so I am justifying eating all that food and making this my exercise 🙂

Footprints on the sand 🙂

Turning to the right going to the main beach

There was a sand bar!

A few people were walking the sandbar

Towards the clubhouse

There are more people on this side of the beach but still not many –

This we are guessing is an entrance from a casita – so the Casitas have access to the main beach

Moving closer to the clubhouse – kids playing

Halfway we are at the clubhouse- an hour’s leisurely walk halfway around the island
