Tingko is about more than a mile long beach with pinkish and crystal clear turquoise water lined with coconut palm trees and limestone cliffs. And You’ll be surprised at how budget-friendly this paradise is.

Bas Dako Beach

Bas Dako Beach is located in Moalboal whom they call the home of the divers. It is popular among divers because of its rich marine life, particularly the famous sardines run. Divers from the Philippines and around the world would always include Moalboal as part of their bucket list. I myself was introduced to diving in Moalboal and it became one of my favorite islands here in Cebu. I was addicted to freediving and I am looking forward to getting certified.

It has a long stretch of powder-white sand, lined up with coconut trees and crystal clear water. Lambug beach is perfect for a couple who wants a peaceful quality time together. Been there many times and Lambug has always its unique beauty to offer every time.

Hermits Cove

Hermits Cove ​is an untouched paradise in Southwestern of Cebu. Located in Brgy, Kantabogon, Aloguinsan. This place is not yet developed but is a complete beach bum. It’s a perfect getaway for family and friends who would love to spend quality time. What I also love about this beach is that it’s like you are on your own private beach. No large crown of people. You can shout the loudest and no one will hear you. I just recently discovered this place and I was like why I didn’t know this place before. This is so beautiful to go somewhere far.

Hermits cove is not an easy place to reach, I can still remember how our GPS took us on a long winding narrow path roads, to a point that we are no longer sure if it will take us in the right direction good thing locals there are very friendly we would not have reached the place without their help. To my surprise, the place is unbelievably beautiful. It’s worth the bumpy ride. Indeed a hidden paradise in the mountain.

Hidden Beach

Another secluded paradise of Aloguinsan. The place is so serene and quiet. Hidden Beach has this tranquil quality that takes all your worries away. Ear pleasing sound of the waves and the crickets is what you hear the most. With fine white sand paired with turquoise water and palm trees lining up. Just like Hermits Cove, it’s also a mountain beach paradise. The only difference is that they have available rooms for tourists. Planning of getting away from the hustle-bustle of the city then this is the perfect place for you.

Durhan White Beach

Durhan White Beach is situated in Tabuelan and is one of the premier white sand in the northern part of Cebu. This little paradise has a stunning natural beauty. This place is perfect as you just sit back and relax while looking at the calm ocean close by waiting for the sunset. Its pristine white sand, as well as the crystal clear waters, attract many tourists, especially during summer.

Life is always better at the beach. And Cebu is offering one of the world-class beaches, like so many other places in The Philippines. Like the Top 10 Breathtaking Palawan Beaches. Whatever mood you are in, it always gets better when you are at the beach. We all need this sort of therapy that only the beach can give us. There is something about a beach escapade that leaves you blissfully relaxed, happy, and rejuvenated.

Those Beaches mentioned above are a must-visit. Imagine visiting one city and you get to experience different world-class beaches. Come what more if you get to see other tourist spots that you can check on. You will surely love Cebu for what it’s offering you. You now have the idea of where to go.
