  • 3 Ecotourism in the Islands
    3│ Ecotourism in the Islands Ecotourism Sites & Activities Bantayan Island, the Camotes Group of Islands and President Carlos P. Garcia Island have a diverse range of high quality natural and man-made attractions, which are ideal for ecotourism development. Its attractions include an extensive system of protected areas such as coral reefs, marine parks and mangrove forests; fine white sand beaches; coves; caves; waterfalls, and; historical sites that could easily be packaged into viable tourism products. At present, tourism activities are limited to the following: rest & relaxation, nature tours, trekking, biking, homestay, and festival celebration. Natural Resource Base The islands' natural resource base comprises mostly of marine and coastal resources, such as marine sanctuaries, coral reserves, beaches, seascapes, caves and mangrove areas. Measures to protect some of the potential ecotourism sites such as the marine protected areas are already in place. Local legislations such as the Municipal Fisheries and Coastal Resource Management Code and the Clean and Green Ordinance are some of the local initiatives taken to protect the coastal resources of the islands. A number of task forces have also been created to ensure the protection of the marine sanctuaries. There is a need though to strengthen some of the measures. Even with the presence of the bodies, violations threaten these protected areas. Marine Protected Areas. The islands boast of successfully-implemented and managed marine protected areas. By virtue of enacted ordinances, the islands have established 56 marine sanctuaries/protected areas, covering more than 1,000 hectares. Almost half (25) of the marine protected areas are found in Bantayan Island.
