Guisi Lighthouse and Beach
About
Rusty Spanish-era lighthouse ruins on a jungle hill, with a quiet cove of clear water right below: Guisi is Guimaras at its most cinematic! Walk around the old iron tower and the vine-covered stone walls, then head down for a swim at Guisi Beach. It is a regular stop on Guimaras day tours with the Trappist Monastery and Alubihod, so pair them in one easy loop from Iloilo.
Go before 2 PM today. Rain likely after.
