Danajon Islet

About

Danajon Islet, also known as Dawahon Islet, is an islet in the Philippines located at the easternmost end of the Danajon Bank. The islet is coterminous with Barangay Dawahon, which is under the jurisdiction of the municipality of Bato in the province of Leyte. The islet is only 5 hectares (12 acres) and has a population of about 3,230 as of the 2020 census. The islet is only 3 meters (9.8 feet) above sea level, but the Danajon Bank protects it somewhat.
