"For anyone who finds Borocay too crowded, Malapascua is the perfect antidote. As long as it continues to attract the quieter type of traveler it will stay that way. This little island has everything the low-key sun-seeking traveler needs."

"Another up and coming diving destination ... which boasts excellent white sand beaches and fine dive sites nearby, including Gato Island, Monad Shoal, and Manoc Manoc Islands. This is a good choice for those who want to escape the crowds further south."

"Has everything the low-key, sun-seeking traveler needs ...enticing, long white beaches, plenty of good restaurants, ,and resorts to suit most budgets."
