About Sabitang Laya Island
Sabitang Laya Island, one of Caramoan’s most breathtaking destinations, is an authentic slice of paradise in Camarines Sur. Known for its twin white-sand beaches separated by towering limestone cliffs, the island offers postcard-perfect views and serene coastal charm. Its clear turquoise waters are ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and beach camping, making it a favorite stop for island-hopping adventures in the Caramoan Peninsula.
Sabitang Laya is almost identical to the other islets of Caramoan, boasting crystal-clear waters and fantastic rock formations. The only difference is that it has a longer stretch of fine, white sand. Aside from that, there’s a wide and long stretch of trees and grass by the shoreline. Of course, the wind is calm and fresh.
With its pristine shores and dramatic rock formations, Sabitang Laya Island stands as a symbol of Caramoan’s untouched beauty. Whether you’re exploring its twin beaches or simply soaking in the peaceful island vibe, every moment here feels like a retreat into paradise. A visit to Sabitang Laya is not just a trip—it’s an experience that captures the very soul of the Philippine islands.

Travel Tip
Instead of commuting, we chartered a van to the jump-off in Paniman.
Additionally, island-hopping tours in Caramoan are typically categorized into “Group A” and “Group B” islands—Sabitang Laya often falls under Group A. It’s best to start early in the morning to enjoy calm waters and more time to explore.
