About Aniao Islets
Aniao Islets are a pair of small, uninhabited rocky islets in Baler Bay off the coast of Baler, Aurora, on the eastern seaboard of Luzon. Located a short boat ride from Sabang Beach, they are known for their distinctive rock formations and scenic seascape. Largely natural and undeveloped, the islets serve as a prominent landmark in Baler Bay and a focal point for sightseeing and island-hopping boat tours from Baler town.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect to view two rocky, vegetation-sparse islets rising from Baler Bay, best seen on a short motorized outrigger boat tour from Sabang Beach or Baler Fishport. The islets are primarily a sightseeing and photography spot viewed from the water or from the beach; there are no developed structures, shops or trails on the islets themselves. Surroundings include open sea, views back to the Sierra Madre coastline and Baler town, with calm mornings offering the clearest views.
