Tulang Diot Island is an island located at Brgy. Esperanza, San Francisco, Camotes, Cebu. Tulang is an islet but the locals divided it into two places: Tulang Diot and Tulang Dako.
Tulang Dako is part of the mainland San Francisco, while Tulang Diot is a much smaller islet. Locals and visitors of Tulang go to Tulang Diot via Tulang Dako through a 5 minute boat ride on an outrigger boat. (‘dako’ means big and ‘diot’ means small in Cebuano language). During your short ride you’ll observe colorful fishes doing their usual business.
Tulang Diot has a light house, but that’s not what makes it special.
It is the serenity and rustic atmosphere that make it stand out among other places on the island of Camotes. If you were looking for a place to be alone and away from the ‘noise’ of the busy world, this bucolic and countryside beach could be the place.
Another unique feature of Tulang Diot is its beach. It has an islet beach that appears during low tide and gets submerged during high tide - a sandbar.
During high tide, it is just enough for adults to swim on the submerged white beach and that’s what makes it interesting to experience – sparkling waters above the submerged white sand under your feet!
