Philippines
/ North Mindanao / Dinagat Island
Dinagat,
about 1 hour by motorboat from Surigao City, has so far almost
no tourist infrastructure though this may change as soon as some
investors will have discovered the beautiful tiny islets along
its western coast. There are many excellent though unexplored
sites for divers as well as spelunkers.

from the village of San Roque, is known for beautiful above-water

off the shore of Dinagat Island; several beaches with pure white
sand and a cave, Suy-ang Cave, that waits to be explored.
