Dear Hiver,
Hope this message finds you well. As the summer 2025 season is approaching, we are inviting you to explore one of the pristine beaches in the Philippines called Kota Beach. The beach is considered one of the top tourist destinations on the Island of Bantayan, Cebu and waiting for you to discover. Hope you will consider this place in your bucket list and visit this coming summer season.
Thank you and see you 😉

It's indeed summer season. Im day daydreaming again about visiting a pristine beach like this one 😅. How I wish there were an email invitation pop-up in my inbox for exploring this beautiful Kota Beach on Bantayan Island. If there is, of course, I will not let it pass. Who am I to reject it, right?
Even if I have work, I will schedule and file a vacation leave for this. Sorry, team, visiting this beach is much important than working in the graveyard 😅. Just kidding; I have a lot of tummies to feed. Wright now, the least we can do is just have a throwback and scroll down our gallery regarding our previous travel adventures. That's why I found this video that I will share with you.
This video was taken last April 16, 2022. It's almost 3 years, and I still remember our experience on this pristine beach. As I remember, it was holy week when we were invited to visit the island by one of our colleagues who happened be residing there. And this Kota Beach is on the beautiful tourist spot in the Island we've visited. It's my second time around on this place, and I think it's not the last one, hoping 😅.
Of course, I still hope to be back in this place. I already pinned my heart on this Island, and I will never get tired of going back and seeing a beauty like this. There are places that Ive visited already that I'm okay not to back, but Bantayan Island is different from those; something there's an aura pulling me back to this place. You will experience it when you visit the Island.
Kota Beach is known for having a wide strip of fine white sand along the coastline of Sta. Fe. It has a Sandbar that everyone loves to see. Its ambiance is so picturesque and perfect for your Insta wall, from the crystal clear water and the tropical vibe of the resorts around.
You can do a lot of activities here on the beach, from sunbathing in the fine white sand to exploring its marine life. Its crystal clear water is perfect for you to dive in and witness the beauty of corals and other marine life. You can also play beach volleyball with other tourists. Skimboarding with the other locals, Jetsi and Kayak riding. At night, you will enjoy the active nightlife in the beach and enjoy partying with different tourists. Ofcourse interms of food don't miss out the seafoods.
To tell you, this place is worth it to visit. From the moment you set foot on the pier, you will be in awe of what you will see. From the color of the water and the enticing beach on the shoreline. Plus the sunset you will never forget.
So, are you now interested in this invitation?
How to reach Kota Beach?
If you are now decided to explore Bantayan Island and experience Kota Beach, You can reach it from several ways.
Private Transportation: You can rent a Van or Taxi bound to Hagnaya Port. it will take you 3 and a half hours of travel, depending on the traffic. The cost is 3500 pesos, depending on the package. Then, take a ferry bound to Sta. Fe. It is one and a half hours of travel, and the fare is 400 pesos. Then, from the Pier, you will ride a tricycle going to the Proper of Sta. Fe where Kota beach is suited.
Bus: You can also ride a Bus From Cebu North Bus Terminal bound to Hagnaya port. It will take you four hours of travel and cost you 300 pesos for the fair. Then, ride a ferry bound to Bantayan Island.
If you want a fast trip to reach the Island, there's a flight already from Mactan Island to Bantayan Island every Friday and Sunday. It will only take you for 25 minutes of travel and gues what its only 888 pesos per trip. This is my recommended way to reach the Island. Just a reminder, there's only a flight twice a week, and only 72 passengers are accommodated, so make sure to book ahead to reserve your seat.
Travel Tips
Check the Weather; Always check the weather before heading to the island.
Schedule and book your accommodation ahead. Choose an accommodation at Sta. Fe, so you are near Kota Beach
Bring your necessities. Don't forget your swimwear and sun protection. The Island is so hot, especially during the summer season.
Bring Extra Money, as few ATM's are available in the area
Respect Local rules and the Environment. Dont destroy this paradise and be mindful with your trash.
