Malapascua Island, Cebu, Philippines: A Paradise Recovered (Latest Photos, Updates after Haiyan/Yolanda Devastation)


Malapascua Island is an island of the town of Daanbantayan located in the northernmost tip of Cebu, Philippines. It is known as a dive destination and also for its wide white sand beach named as Bounty Beach. Most of the locals here do a living from tourism, but for some still rely on fishing or farming.

Unfortunately, this beautiful paradise was one of the places raged over by super typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda in Philippines) that made landfall last November 8th, 2013. The island was leveled that it almost took all the roofs of the houses, hotels and other structures. For couple of weeks (or even months), it has lost its power and some communication/network facilities.

Traveler's Couch made a visit last February 6-9, 2014. This post will guide you through the latest photos or updates of Malapascua Island after being raged by the typhoon exactly three months ago (as of this visit). Please click the photo to enlarge.
