Olotayan Island is a barangay in Roxas City, Capiz. It is just 45-minute motorboat ride from the wharf of Pan-ay, Capiz. The word Olotayan came from the native word “olo” meaning head, and “tyan” meaning stomach.
The native folks are still living in this rural place, with no electricity, far from modern technology, and a limited water supply.
