Eskapo Verde

About Eskapo Verde
Eskapo Verde is a unique eco-tourism destination located on a 2-hectare mangrove island in Badian Bay. The name, meaning 'Green Escape,' perfectly captures the essence of this natural sanctuary that offers visitors a chance to disconnect from urban life and reconnect with nature. The island is connected to the mainland in Barangay Bugas by a charming 100-meter bamboo walkway that winds through the mangrove forest, setting the tone for the eco-friendly experience ahead. Once on the island, visitors can enjoy various activities including kayaking, paddleboarding, and exploring the mangrove ecosystem. Eskapo Verde Lodge operates on the island, offering accommodations for those who want an immersive nature experience. The resort prides itself on its eco-friendly and sustainable practices, making it an ideal destination for environmentally conscious travelers. Its location just 5 minutes south of Moalboal makes it easy to combine with other Badian attractions.
