Not only is White Sand a beautiful beach, but it also offers the opportunity to go hiking.

I visited this beach in 2015 and was fortunate enough to experience it during low tide. It was my first time witnessing such a variety of sea creatures in one place and I was truly amazed. There were numerous species of starfish, sea urchins, sea worms, eels, sea cucumbers, and hermit crabs. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at this beach.

The beach is lovely with its stunning golden sand, but unfortunately, there are no facilities for rinsing off the saltwater from your body.

If you're looking for an affordable and uncrowded white beach, this hidden gem in Oriental Mindoro is worth a visit. The entrance fee we paid was only 10 PHP and we rented a cottage for 100 PHP. While there aren't any activities like banana boat rides, we enjoyed exploring the rocky side of the beach. Most of the visitors were locals who came to relax and drink. You can swim and enjoy the sea breeze, but be sure to bring your own food and water as there is no clean water supply and the public toilets are not recommended. Locals can simply dry off, change clothes, and bathe at home.
