Practical

Position: Apulit Island, OpenStreetMap way 4247238 (Nominatim) / Wikidata Q31467971. Taytay Bay lies on the Sulu Sea side, about 6 nm east of Taytay town. El Nido Resorts bans drones across Apulit. No published yacht anchorage or soundings found; Taytay town anchorage (Hacking Family) is the reference anchorage - its approach is reef-strewn and the reef system east of town forces a wide detour to the north.
