Pearly shorelines at Mati, Davao Oriental

Dahican Beach is just a few minutes away from Davao's Mati City.
Dahican Beach is a popular weekend spot for the local thrill-seeking surfers and skimboarders, and even to the ordinary beachgoers and I think here's the reason why.

Pearly shorelines along this beach with lines of coconut trees, blue waters, it surely deserves to be in a postcard.
With plenty of marine wildlife, dolphins, turtles, and dugongs, which can be easily spotted if you are snorkeling in the area.
Dahican Beach is surely a must-see for any travelers around the globe!

Fiery Camiguin Island

Camiguin is known as an island “born from fire” located off the coast of Mindanao it was formed over hundreds of years by earthquakes and volcanic activity. Even though it has a fiery history, Camiguin is a tranquil Island.

Camiguin Island has an plenty of breathtaking beaches you can go to. But if you have plenty of time, I would advise you to try the White Island Beach, it is a beautiful sandbar with white sand and incredible views of the volcanoessurroundingg it.

With clear blue waters snorkeling is a must try, sunbathe, and watch the sunset.
