Beste tijd om te bezoeken

Visit on weekday mornings (7-10 AM) when the beach is nearly empty and the water is at its calmest. The dry season from December to May offers the most reliable sunshine and flat seas.

Budgettips

No entrance fee to the beach itself. Bring cash as there are no ATMs on Malapascua Island, and beachfront cottages rent for as little as 800-1200 PHP ($14-22 USD) per night.

Aanbevolen voor

Beach bums seeking solitude, Snorkelers and freedivers, Budget travelers, Couples looking for quiet romance

Over

Korte feiten: Wit zand strekt zich bijna 2 kilometer uit langs de westkust van Malapascua Island, met water dat zo helder is dat je vanaf de kant zeesterren kunt zien. Kokospalmen hangen over de kustlijn en werpen in de middag hun schaduwen over de handvol bamboehuisjes en bars aan het strand.

Hoogtepunten: Elke ochtend bij zonsopgang slepen lokale vissers hun vangst direct het zand op met traditionele steunvlotten die felblauw en geel zijn geschilderd. Verkopers grillen de vangst van die ochtend boven vuurtjes van kokosdoppen, pal op het strand, en vullen de lucht met rook en de geur van verse vis voordat de meeste toeristen wakker zijn geworden.

Insidertips

  • Walk north past the main beach area for complete solitude, where the sand continues uninterrupted for another 500 meters with barely a soul in sight.
  • Skip eating at resort restaurants and head to the bamboo shacks near the boat landing area at lunchtime, where locals serve fresh grilled seafood for 150-200 PHP ($3-4 USD).
  • Bring reef-safe sunscreen and a rash guard, as the shallow reef just offshore makes for excellent snorkeling and the tropical sun is intense.
  • Visit during a new moon for incredible bioluminescent plankton that lights up the water like stars when you splash at night.
