Hidden Beach: White-Sand Treasure of Aloguinsan
One cannot begin to associate celebrating and enjoying Philippine summers without going to—or even thinking of—beaches. Indeed, summer in the Philippines is not complete without frolicking in crystal-clear seawater, playing on the sand, having a picnic of puso and barbecue under the shade of a hut or coconut tree, snorkeling above coral reefs, or even taking a walk along the seashore.
You may actually have glimpses of these beaches in postcards, magazines, travel websites, and TV shows. But if you notice, many of these featured beaches also feature immaculately maintained gardens, massive hotel and resort buildings in the background, relaxing beach lounges, carefully trimmed palm trees, and uniformed staff bringing drinks and coconuts with little paper umbrellas.
While these kinds of beaches may appeal to the ordinary tourist, these leave much to be desired for the adrenaline-seeking adventurer. Thus, while an ordinary tourist enjoys all those convenience, pampering, and ultramodern facilities, the adventurer finds himself or herself asking: where are the boundless white sand shores? Where is the azure, aquamarine water? Where are the tropical fishes that nibble at your feet? Where is all that serenity offered by a place devoid of people, buildings, and monumental costs? In other words, where can I find real Philippine beach paradise? C'mon and enjoy the HIDDEN BEACH of ALOGUINSAN.
