We see awesome beaches on TV shows and Hollywood movies like into the blue. We get fascinated by it. But look no further because in our very own country, we got our own beaches that even foreigners rave about.
The Beaches I visited are amazing and I desire to go back again.
Boracay,Panglaw Island in Bohol and Gilutongan Island in Cebu.
Do you like going to the beach too?

Like you, I love Philippine beaches too, but the only beaches I've beene too are from Mindanao because I live here. Some spectacular beaches I visited are White Island of Camiguin, a breathtaking beach with ivory sand and crystal blue water. Then the beaches of the beautiful Island Garden city of Samal here in Davao are simply amazing and fascinating. Samal's pride are Pearl Farm beach resort (a world class resort operated by the Floreindos), Chemas by the Sea is another romantic beach here, Maxima, Blue Jass, Isla Rita and RMPC beach resorts are fabulous!You must visit these beaches, very worthy of your time, money and effort.

I visited Camiguin 2 years ago. I agree that white island is a breath taking beach. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to go there because there was a tropical depression. The beaches you've mentioned are very interesting. I shall note that.
Thank you for sharing.

Yes, our beaches are awesome. We do have 7107 islands and only a few are really popular. But for me the best is our underwater marine life. I love diving especially in places which is not along the beaten path. I once snorkeled in Coron with miles and miles of staghorn corals. Truly beautiful!

You have a very keen observation,regarding our beaches here at home than other countries. Yes you are right about what you said regarding sharks. According to the survey there were only 3 people got bitten by sharks here in the Philippines.
Another beach I went to was Hundred Islands. It was a very memorable experience, I got bitten by a tiny jellyfish. But it's alright coz I did enjoy my visit there together with my family.

I love the beaches here in the Philippines. I recently went to Marinduque, then we hire a small boat to go island hoping. The beaches there are so nice. It's not congested that's why we enjoy the tour as if we own the whole island. And it is not expensive to go there.

I consider going to Marinduque. My brother went there before together with his kids. He fell in love with the place.It became his favorite since then.

The rates depend on the resort you are going to visit. Example in Bohol, the place we went to go swimming is in Dumaluan Beach resort. The rate is reasonable and the place is fantastic.

Definitely, my place is near beaches and my work has something to do with beaches and seas.=)
Whenever I have time, I always consider going to the beach for a day to relax and unwind. I am planning to go on some of our great beaches here, I'm considering Boracay or maybe Puerto Galera in Mindoro.

Your job sounds interesting. What do you do that involves the beach and the sea?
Boracay and Puerto Galera are both fantastic places to go to.

Same here, I love to spend my time at the beach. I've been to Boracay how I love the white powdered sand and doing some outdoor activities. I've been to Bohol, a great place for scuba diving, and some other beaches here in Cebu specially in Malapascua and Bantayan Island, it will only cost you cheaper than Boracay. Also at Camiguin Island, you will surely fell in love with the scenic view of the beach.
