Unwind at Bitaog Beach of Dinagat Islands: Pristine Waters, White Sand, and Peace

White sandy shoreline of Bitaog Beach with gentle waves

If there's one island in the Dinagat Islands that you should not miss, it should be the Bitaog beach. We went there as part of our island hopping adventure and this beach really did not disappoint. It is not called as little Boracay for nothing. I mean, just take a look at its fine white sand and you will know what I mean.

I like how this beach is also non swimmers friendly. It's easy to move around the area of water because the water is not too deep or not to shallow, maybe at least during the time we visited there which is around lunch time already. The place is not just all about water but also the rock formation is one of a kind. It is as if mother nature has worked its way to make the view around the area pleasing to the eye. Also, I see there are caves in the area which I dared not to enter of course.

The beach is named after the Bitaog tree that used to thrive in the area. Sadly, no more trace of Bitaog trees in the beach, nevertheless, the name Bitaog remains the same.

There are other kinds of trees in the area though. Something that is very commendable for this beach resort because during hot season like summer, we can find refuge to the shadows of the trees planted in the area. I like how they preserved it that way despite the development that they made to the place.

The beach resort is not that big though, but more than enough to cater visitors and occasional tourists. Snorkeling in its water is also a good idea. There's not lot fishes in the water, but great enough to entertain you while you are at the area.

There are also some water activities that you can enjoy like water kayaking, snorkeling or you can just simply swim and enjoy its warm water. Overall, my experience at Bitaog beach resort is great and I would gladly recommend it to other people.
