It was better weather today, so I headed up to Ilig-iligan beach on the north east side of the island. I managed to find a motorbike taxi to take me there, and headed towards a spot where I could leave my clothes and go swimming to the islands.
As I was swimming there I enjoyed seeing the corals and fishes, but became aware that I was fighting a strong current.
It eventually got strong enough that I realised I wouldn't make it to the spot I wanted to get to, without being washed out to sea, so instead made a beeline for the rocks at the top of the bay so that I could pull myself back ashore.
As I made it near the shore I became aware of a couple njoying what they thought was privacy in the water so made sure to give them privacy as I waded on to the shore and headed back to my clothes.
I reached the spot where the road was, and grabbed a beer and enjoyed relaing on a beach bed, before it got a little chilly, so I got another motorbike taxi back to the hostel.
Once back at the hostel, I enjoyed playing some pool with the other guests, and had some beers before dinner.
