**Our Community**

At the island, we are building more than just a resort—we are creating a thriving, sustainable community that holds a deep respect for nature, local culture, and the well-being of all involved. Our mission is to foster a space where guests, staff, and the local community can come together to embrace a truly authentic, off-the-grid experience.

Our story began in 2014 when the founders discovered the breathtaking beauty of Darocotan Island during a visit to El Nido. The crystal-clear waters and idyllic white sand beaches were inviting, but the dense jungle made the land inhospitable. With no place to stay, the local village welcomed us, offering shelter, food, and warmth. This connection sparked a lasting bond, and ever since, we have worked closely with our neighbors to bring sustainable tourism to the area.

**Our Mission:**

Our mission is simple yet meaningful: to create a one-of-a-kind remote island experience that combines nature, marine life, and cultural exchange. We are not just a place to stay; we are a space with purpose—dedicated to supporting the local community, preserving the environment, and offering guests an unforgettable, transformative experience.

We believe in escaping the crowded tourist trail and embracing the pure, untouched beauty of nature. By doing so, we create special, lifelong memories for our guests while contributing to the local community’s growth and preserving the surrounding environment.

We offer a stunning beachfront location, providing direct access to pristine sand and crystal-clear waters. Whether you’re looking to relax, work, or explore, the beach offers the perfect backdrop for every activity.

**Local Activities and Nearby Attractions:**

**Shipwreck Snorkeling:**
Just off our beach, you’ll find a fascinating shipwreck from around 20 years ago. After a typhoon caused a fishing boat to hit rocks and sink, the site has transformed into a thriving underwater ecosystem. Explore vibrant corals and see hundreds of fish species, including parrotfish, lionfish (be careful!), Picasso triggerfish, clownfish (yes, Nemo!), and more. Look down to spot the colorful chocolate chip and blue starfish, or keep an eye out for blue-spotted stingrays. For a deeper dive, consider booking a private snorkeling boat to take you to the best sites around Darocotan Island.

**Kayaking:**
Paddle out and explore the waters at your own pace. Kayaking is a great way to enjoy the stunning coastal views and discover hidden coves along the shoreline.

**Local Village Tour:**
Take a step into the heart of the local community with a village tour. You’ll have the chance to experience local culture, meet friendly residents, and explore the beautiful surroundings, all while learning about the rich history of the island.
