Nestled along the picturesque coast of Dumaguete, the Banilad Marine Protected Area is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. Stretching across a modest length, its shores flaunt pristine white sand that creates a stark contrast against the azure waters. The marine sanctuary does not only offer a tranquil retreat but also a diverse range of activities including snorkeling to explore the vibrant underwater life, paddleboarding for a serene experience on the water, and traditional beachcombing for those looking to relax by the sea. Banilad Marine Protected Area has few amenities, so plan your trip accordingly, although it does have essential facilities for a comfortable visit.
