"Was not expecting it to be this clean and beautiful when we visited the beach, since I read some mixed comments. But we were so fortunate to experience it’s beauty when we were there. Went by 9 in the morning on a Tuesday and there were very few beachgoers. Perhaps more people tend to come by lunch time to afternoon or night. Or perhaps on weekends. Anyway, we had a great time. We only paid for the environmental fee (₱45) and parking fee (₱100 for car)."

"White Beach indeed, you'll pay first the Environmental Fee which is 45pesos each then if you have a motor bike you'll pay for the parking for day use 50 pesos and 100 for overnight, good thing is that you don't need to pay for entrance fee which is cool 🙏🏻👍🏻
Good Job BADIAN 🫶🏻"
