Even though it's composed by red earth, it's not as red as its name if you look at it from a distance. Instead, you will see it as a green hill because there is a lot of vegetation on the hill. You can go uphill on foot when the water is receding. If you want to see the most beautiful view of Red Island Beach, you must visit it in the morning to see the sunrise or at dawn to see the sunset.
