Long Beach
Long Beach in San Vicente is exactly what it sounds like: a stunning 14-kilometer stretch of white sand that puts most famous beaches to shame. What makes it special is the almost complete absence of crowds. On any given day, you might have kilometers of beach to yourself.
The beach faces west, making sunsets here absolutely spectacular. The sand is fine and white, the water is warm and clear, and the waves are gentle enough for swimming. A few scattered resorts dot the beach, but most of it remains completely undeveloped.
San Vicente is developing rapidly (an airport is planned), so this untouched paradise won't stay secret forever. Now is the time to visit.
-
Fly into San Vicente Airport or take a van from Puerto Princesa (about P560 from the airport, 3.5-4 hours) to San Vicente town.
-
From the airport, take a tricycle to Long Beach: about P75 per person shared, or P300 for the whole tricycle.
-
From San Vicente town, tricycles to the nearer sections of Long Beach (Pinagmangalokan in New Agutaya) start at P50 per person. The northern end at Alimanguan costs more.
-
To explore the full 14.7 km, rent a motorbike in town (P500/day) and follow the coastal road north from Poblacion through New Agutaya and San Isidro to Alimanguan, stopping wherever you like.
