Any amount donated/raised on top of the target will be used to acquire tour paraphernalia and boat maintenance. Please see list below as a guide. The following tour paraphernalia will be acquired:

When Isla Culion is mentioned more often than not only 2 things come in mind. The first is “Isn’t that a Leper Colony?” or “What is Culion? Where is Culion?”

Kawil Tours with their young and dynamic operators and partners continue its initiative of promoting tourism on the island recognizing its potential for livelihood and progress for the island and its people.

As a business entity that promotes locally initiated and managed entrepreneurial endeavors, Kawil Tour’s tour operations help increase local economic activities. The meals served to travelers are heartily prepared by partner families; local hotels/inns benefit through bookings and in-house sales; local stores earn additional revenue; and tour guides earn their fair share of income as well.

Kawil currently gets the services of local boatmen for its tour operations. Financially, this is more costly than operating one’s own boat and the cost affects Kawil’s package rates. With no boat of its own, Kawil’s ‘freedom’ to journey guests around Culion and the neighboring islands is limited.

Also, having its own boat will help Kawil explore more destinations in Culion. No more limitations. Even guests can simply opt to sail out and have a spontaneous journey around Culion and its surrounding areas.

A Kawil-owned boat will serve as a symbolism of connectivity. Culion reaches out to the world through tourism. The world reaches out to Culion by appreciating and understanding the island’s story and natural marvels. A journey takes place as a result. And the Kawil boat serves as a silent witness to the mutual relationship between the travellers and the travel destination.
