Great Santa Cruz Island
Philippines, Philippines
Great Santa Cruz Island, located 4 km off Zamboanga City in the southern Philippines, is a small inhabited coral reef island celebrated for its rare pink sand beach formed from pulverized red organ pipe corals mixed with white sand. Part of the protected Great and Little Santa Cruz Islands Landscape and Seascape covering 1,877 hectares, it offers crystal-clear turquoise waters for swimming, a mangrove lagoon with harmless stingless jellyfish, vinta boat rides, and glimpses of the Badjao sea gypsy community, accessible by a 15-20 minute boat from Paseo del Mar with limited daily visitors for conservation.
