Sipayuk Islet of Bongao

Sipayuk Islet is the last islet of Bongao that serves as the border of Bongao and Languyan Municipality. It is under the jurisdiction of Barangay Silubbog of the capital municipality – Bongao. Silubbog is the last barangay of Bongao to the North - the adjacent islet of Sipayuk. Indeed it is really the border of Bongao and Languyan because of the fact that getting here from Bongao Aquada Bay/Chinese Pier will take you 29 minutes via speedboat (around 2 hours via motor launch/lantsa). The same calculation when you ride a speed boat from Languyan Proper (I really used stopwatch!!!). Sipayuk Islet is not so famous to Tawi-Tawians, only to the people of Languyan. This Islet is currently inhabited by about 15-20 households whose sources of livelihood depend on fishing and sea weeds farming.


Sipayuk Islet never fails to mesmerize bloggers and photographers every time they passed by to Languyan municipality.
