San Antonio Island


San Antonio island is located 20 minutes off the coast of Northern Samar. This island is surrounded with white sandy beach, a hidden paradise full of unexploited potential for tourism and economic development. This island is twice the size of Boracay but it has lots of beach front properties available for investors. Pictured above is one of the resorts at San Antonio. Invest here and you will benefit the pristine ocean, white sandy beach, coral reefs for snorkeling and deep sea diving.

Samar route


Samar,is an island in the Visayas, within the central Philippines. The island is divided into three provinces: Samar province, Northern Samar, and Eastern Samar. These three provinces, along with the provinces on the nearby islands of Leyte and Biliran are part of the Eastern Visayas region. It is the third largest island in the Philippines after Luzon and Mindanao.

Samar is the easternmost island in the Visayas. The island is separated from Leyte by the San Juanico Strait, which at its narrowest point is only about two kilometers across. This strait is crossed by the San Juanico Bridge. Samar lies southeast of the Bicol Peninsula on Luzon, the country's largest island; the San Bernardino Strait separates the two. To the south of Samar is the Leyte Gulf, the site of the Battle of Leyte Gulf, one of the most decisive naval battles during the Second World War. The gulf opens out into the Philippine Sea, found to the east of Samar and is part of the Pacific Ocean.
