Potipot Island is located roughly 1 km from the mainland shore of Uacon, Candelaria, Zambales. Uacon is about 240+km from Manila by road.
Potipot is a white sand island, only 5 minutes by banca, from Candelaria, Zambales. There is no resort on the island but there are trees that provide shade along the beach. You can walk around the whole island in less than 30 mins.
Most visitors stay in town and hire boats for a day trip to the island. The last time I was there someone from the mainland came over by boat and said that they are representatives of the owner and that all visitors to the island are to pay them minimal amount for use of the beach! I don't know if they are more organized now.
Address: Candelaria, Zambales
