At the port of Maya upon arrival......
One side of the Maya Port......
Malapascua from a distance.....
While waiting for more passengers......
and I almost jumped off the vessel having seen this.... so tempting..... and to think this is just a few feet away from the port.....while the vessel was being pushed a bit further to a deeper part.....
A Swiss couple on board......
There it is....Malapascua at a distance....
Few passengers......
Closer....closer....closer.....on one side......
on the other side.....and the clear waters......super super tempting.....ggggrrrrrrrr
As we get closer.......
on one side.........
and the other....wwhhhhooooowwww
The one and only ....."Malapascua "
This is not even half of what Malapascua can really offer.....
The far part of their so-called " daang barrio"......
...amongst the not-so-accessible secluded nice part of the island....
Bantigue Cove.....
a nice place on the other side....
Then came another inviting place.....
Enjoying few minutes of a nostalgic sunset at the lighthouse :-)
Heading back to the civilization of their barrio.... it's getting dark :-)
Then darkness sets in.....
and I can't think of anything else but having my much needed rest after a nearly 5hours road trip and 4hours solo island wandering....whew!!!!..... such an Xciting yet challenging day :-) 
And after a night's rest.....
came the super invigorating sunrise :-) 
Stared at the scenery for few minutes.. knowing this won't be the first and last time I will set foot on Malapascua :-)
Then came the bit sad yet real part of heading back to Daan Bantayan :-(
From a distance.......
excitedly looking forward to spending more and more memorable moments on a paradise named... Malapascua :-)
