Latest reviews on Gumaca's beaches

Polacay Beach
8 Nirav Patel.

This serene beach is a hidden gem with a tranquil atmosphere that is not overrun by crowds. It is recommended to pack your own food as the only nearby option is a small stall. The pristine white sand and crystal-clear waters make it a perfect spot for snorkeling, especially since there is a fish sanctuary located just 4 kilometers away from the shore.

Banilad Beach

This is an amazing place to stay! It's the perfect spot to relax and let go. The water is incredibly clear, and the sand is so fine. I highly recommend it!

Tagumpay Beach
4 Gustav von der Berg

This beach is comprised of sand, but it's not the white sand you'd find on Koh Chang. It's a bit difficult to access due to the narrow pathway flanked by souvenir shops. Ideally, beaches should be publicly accessible and easy to reach.

Pili Beach

The beach is clean and peaceful, with white sand. There are plenty of trees providing shade, and the water is beautiful and clear, perfect for wading or swimming. Although it is a bit far from town and the roads are in poor condition, it is definitely worth it for a relaxing experience.
