Aliguay Island

Aliguay Island is a small inhabited island barangay off the coast of Dapitan City in Zamboanga del Norte, Mindanao, Philippines. Located about 4 kilometers from the mainland in the Bohol Sea, it is known for its long white-sand beach, clear turquoise waters and protected marine sanctuary. The island offers snorkeling and diving with diverse coral reefs and serves as a quiet day-trip destination from Dapitan and Dipolog.

Visitors reach Aliguay Island by outrigger boat from Dapitan and land on a long white-sand beach lined with coconut trees and simple cottages. The surrounding waters are clear and shallow near shore, with a designated marine sanctuary area for snorkeling and diving to see coral and tropical fish. The island has a small fishing community, basic stores and rental cottages, offering a quiet, low-development beach environment for swimming, relaxing and underwater exploration.
