Secluded Tropical Paradise

Attention spans are 3 seconds these days, I’ll skip the caption so you can just enjoy this tropical wonderland🏝️ Syke!!! The morning I took this has too good of a story🤙🏼 months leading up to my Philippines trip I knew there were going to be tons of great spots to see but this was the only bucket-list spot I 100% was committed to. Come to find out after @saliajalen and I arrive to El Nido that this island was just recently bought by a private company and pulled off all the boat trip itineraries… I tried asking everywhere but without a private invite you couldn’t get out here, even hiring a private boat. Sooo next best thing was flying my drone to it! It’s pretty far out from the mainland and to get a direct line of sight there wasn’t much in terms of accessible areas lol. I found what looked like a good spot on Google earth and set off for a solo sunrise mission! I got turned around a few times but ultimately found the spot I was looking for just in time for sunrise! Not much of a sunrise but a 3km drone flight led to these glorious views! I flew out and back twice, I could have stayed even more but I had to hustle back for an actual boat tour and boy oh boy was I glad that I did… I’ll share that shot another time, until then enjoy my favorite drone-only beach from my trip! God is good!!
