Cebu's sand, sea, and sun

It's summer officially, despite the torrential rains and reports about landslides and floods in other areas around the country. And when we mention summer, images of white sand beaches will surely conjure in the mind - the sands of Boracay, the waters off Dakak, the beaches of Cebu, and a lot more. The Philippines, being a tropical nation, offers more than just a plate of fun things to do, see, and experience this summer season.

And yes, I am still bias for Cebu when we start talking about beaches. And I don't mean just the beach resorts you will find in Mactan. Recently, I was able to tour around the entire province and witnessed the naturally beautiful white sand beaches that surround the entire island. Yes, these are beaches untainted by commercialism and are open for the public to enjoy.


Come to Barili or Samboan. Or drop by infront of the Boljoon church and you will see the white sand open beach that beckons. These are beaches that you don't have to spend a cent to enjoy. These are natural, open, clean, uncrowded, and unpolluted. Although you will be having problems with accommodation because these are open beaches without any resorts.

But if you are looking for a day on the beach, try going around the entire province of Cebu and see for yourself the different beautiful beaches that Mother Nature is offering - beaches that are in their natural state, clean, crystal clear waters, white sands, and a lot more.
