A warm salt breeze meets your face as the banca sets off from Alaminos pier and the first of the hundred islets slides into view—jagged limestone crowns rising from blue-green water like the ribs of an ancient creature. Pilgrimage Island’s statue watches over the cluster while smaller sand cays and mangrove fringes promise shallow snorkeling and quiet coves.

History
The islets are uplifted coral and limestone with protected-park status for decades; local communities in Alaminos have long relied on fishing and small-scale tourism.
Conservation
The park charges environmental fees and limits activities in sensitive zones—use reef-safe products, avoid touching coral, and pack out all trash to reduce impact.
