While Claire and Eleanor were still visiting we had an opportunity to visit our friend Tyler on Guimaras. The weather was a bit windy and not exactly conducive for swimming but we were able to go island hoping and stop by a friend's farm for some buco (coconut).
The islands are beautiful, barely inhabited, and full of vegetation. The local tourist guides seem to be doing a great job keeping island hopper's trash out of the water and off their shores.
The low tide snorkeling was great in the protected waters.
We were able to get up close and personal with the coral.
There was a bat filled cave, a sea snake, and Nemo was found several times.
Leaving the island, we had a chance to stop by our friend Jevie's farm house.
His family graciously welcomed us and were happy to show us where coconut water comes from.

Claire gives it a try after Jevie made it to the top of a 40m tree in 6 seconds.
