Tagauayan Island is part of the Cuyo Group
of Islands scattered in northern Sulu Sea,
between Palawan and Panay Island.
Tagauayan, also known as Pan de Azucar
during the Spanish era, is a U-shaped, 400
hectare and seemingly two adjacent islands but it’s not. One can actually walk from one
“island” to the other during low tide.
Tagauayan is under barangay Cocoro - which is
also the name of its neighbouring island.
Cuyo, the name of the biggest island in the
group has an airport that can accommodate
chartered flights and private planes. The Cuyo
Group also includes Pamalican Island which is
known for its luxurious and world renowned
Amanpulo Resort. All of the Cuyo Islands are
within the jurisdiction of the municipality of
Magsaysay, province of Palawan.

established resorts and only a couple of
stores are operating in the island. The
island boasts of two white sand beaches: a
600-meter northeastern beachfront, and a
900-meter long beach in its southeastern
front. Both beaches extends to about 250280 meters seaward. There’s also a marine
sanctuary in the island where one can swim
and snorkel to enjoy the spectacular
underwater scenery. Tagauayan with its
unsullied environment takes pride in its
alluring natural beauty, pristine white sand
beaches and abundant marine life.

5. How to get there?
There are several ways to get to Tagauayan
Island :
From Manila take a 1-hour flight to Iloilo City
in Panay Island. From Iloilo, board the ship for
a 12-hour trip to Cuyo Island. In Cuyo town,
take the 30-minute tricycle ride to Magsaysay
town where a motorized boat can be rented
for a 45-minute trip to Tagauayan Island.
Another option is via Puerto Princesa City (also
an hour’s flight from Manila). At Puerto
Princesa, ride a ship bound for Cuyo port (1416 hours trip). Then, take the same motorcycle
and motorized boat rides to Tagauayan.
The fastest option is taking a chartered flight
directly to Magsaysay town, one of two towns in
Cuyo Island. From the airport, its just a short
motorcycle ride to the wharfs - for the boat ride
to Tagauayan.
Cuyo Airport in Magsaysay town is well suited for
chartered flights and private planes. It is regularly
being used by planes delivering fresh seafood to
Manila.
