QUICK GUIDE: PANARAGA BEACH RESORT



"Hear the sound of the waves and relax."

Panaraga Beach is a tourist destination in Barobo, Surigao del Sur, Philippines, with Barobo as its administrative center. The view from Panaraga beach is breathtaking, with a stretch of pristine waters and fine white sand. In order to provide comfort, many tourist support services are currently being carried out.


THINGS TO DO & THINGS TO SEE: 


             

 "Walking barefoot through the sand."

 A small amount and between your toes will help you forget about your problems.


   

"Seashells."

You can take a stroll around the beach in search of various seashells. Take the best ones home with you and turn them into jewelry or a work of art like a photo frame, or simply display them so you can remember how much fun you had at the beach.


                                                      

"Take Photographs."

Take a lot of pictures of your trip to the place since memories endure a lifetime.


                                                                                   
 "Relax."

You are not required to daydream, snap photographs, or do anything else. You can simply sit and unwind. Take a deep breath, relax, or take a nap in the sun (don't forget your sunscreen).


                                                   

"Get in Shape Outside."

It's the ideal time to get your daily dose of exercise outside. In Panaraga, there were kayaking, jet-ski, and banana boat activities where you could mingle with your friends. These sports are good for your core and a good forms of cardio and muscle training. 


"Tiktok."

You can film dance and other stuff there since the beach is such a great scenery. 


"Build a Sand Castle."

This is a classic beach pastime for both kids and adults. Sandcastles come in a variety of designs, from the simplest to the most elaborate, and they help you pass the time at the beach while doing something very unique and entertaining at the beach

"Surfing."

The beach of Panaraga is great for riding the waves. 


Swimming

Its the main reason why you travel on the beach "swimming". Feeling that soothes your skin of the sea waters. 


"Tourist."

There are people where you can meet and socialize with the be friends.

ABOUT THE PLACE:



Is there anything more calming than a stroll down the beach? It's as though you're walking inside an ethereal womb of sound and sky. The sea is dressed in a cerulean gown, while the beach appears to be drenched in earthshine gold. 

The palm trees are arranged in serried rows and bow to the sea with their heads dipped. They have an Eden-green beauty that can only be matched by traveling to the other side of the globe. A springy undergrowth of rich green appears to invite you into the rainforest underneath them. Today, though, you will let its sleeping soul to rest. You've come to savor the sea's indescribable beauty and allow its grandeur to pervade your thoughts. With any hope, you'll be able to take shards of it home with you as a memory.

You're well aware that the picturesque vista you're gazing at may have become a salty grave for many an unwary sailor. The fool-strewn seafloor, however seductive it may appear above the surface, is not to be overlooked. The crystalline air also has a somewhat delightful scent to it. It's as if a vial is slowly uncorking, unveiling a universe of strange aromas. Its richness tantalizes your nostrils. You are not smelling the salty waves' pelagic odor or the earthy perfume of the vegetation. It's a lot more immediate and familiar than that.

WHEN IN LIANGA, SURIGAO DEL SUR: GEROME'S BEACH RESORT

 

BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION AT THE BEACH!

 

"Our age is merely the number of years the world has been enjoying us!"

Birthdays are a unique occasion. They serve as a reminder of our age, as well as a marker of how far we've come. They're a reason to rejoice and a fantastic way to show someone how much you value them. We celebrate someone's birthday not only for how long they've lived but also for how much they've grown in the previous year. Birthdays are significant because they provide everyone with an opportunity to feel unique and show how much their loved ones value them.


   

"It's a time for a 21st birthday blitz! 

Our dear friend celebrated her 21st birthday at Gerome’s Beach resort together with her family, relatives, and us (tourism squad friends). It is indeed an unforgettable moment for us since we have shared happy moments, we laughed, we played, we sang, and even get drunk even when the rain is tearing down at our skin at late midnight but the show must still go on. 

        

"Created from the sharing of the soul, a belonging like no other."

We prepared our self for pictorials and find some ideal spots where we can take the shots nicely. Each one of us got our own style of posing and it is so much fun dealing with someone whom you can vibe with. The results were great!


"You never know how many friends you have until you rent a house on the beach.”

The weather is not good (rainy) but because of their activity and excitement, I love being in their company a lot. When I'm among them, the beach has a distinct vibe. I always find them to be more engaged, cheerful, and eager to have a good time at any moment. (Rain or Shine)




"The beach is always a good idea."

If you make the proper preparations and find activities to do both during the day and at night, a trip to the beach can be a success. Nature is breathtaking, and there is no better place to view it than on a beach or when watching the waves on a beach. I've always been drawn to the beach, despite the fact that I don't know how to swim, surf, or participate in any other water activities. Watching waves, smelling water and sand, and feeling the cool wind of fresh air are all things that I appreciate.


 

 "The greatest gift of life is friendship and I have received it."

Each beach has its own distinct value for me. The one thing that all beaches have in common is that they are overrun with people, yet they also hold the most memories. The beach has taught me some independence lessons over the years that I will be able to apply in the future. Overall, the beach is best enjoyed with friends and family, who can relax and appreciate the sea as it transitions from a busy day to a tranquil night.

WHEN IN LIANGA, SURIGAO DEL SUR: BIG TIMES BEACH RESORT

 

MAKE A SPLASH!

An ocean breeze puts a mind at ease.

    Going to the beach is something that everyone enjoys. One of the most popular holiday destinations is the beach. The sea breeze is refreshing. People come for the sand and sea, as well as the blazing sun because there is no other destination where the ocean meets the land. And practically everyone has a great story to tell about it. So, I'd like to tell you about one of my beach adventures.

"The best things in life are the people we love, the places we've been, and all the memories we've been, and all the memories we've made along the way."

    A peaceful environment is a place where I feel most comfortable. In its way, this is a peaceful area. It's where I go to get away from everything that bothers me. It's the only place in the world where I could sit indefinitely and never get weary of staring into the deepest blue I've ever seen. It is the ideal location for me to sit and contemplate. A place where nothing matters except what is happening right now. The only place that can make my senses go into overdrive. 


    
"Friend's don't let friends go to the beach alone."

    When someone is down, wants to unwind, or simply wants to have fun, they go to the beach. It is usually nice and quiet, and when I go there, I prefer to go with my friends and have a good time. I used to love going to the beach as a kid just to play in the sand and construct beautiful sandcastles, or even just to take a bath in the ocean. However, as I grew older, I recognized that I needed a location to spend most of my summer vacation after all of the stress from school, and simply to have fun and relax. As a result, there was no better place for me to accomplish that than the beach.

 
"Be shore of yourself. Come out of your shell."

    The waves touch at my ankles as I walk towards the coast, the sand warm beneath my feet as if they want to drag me out to sea. The sun rises over the horizon, glistening like gold as it reflects off the waves. The sea air is tangy and stings my nose with the fragrance of the ocean, which I miss when I'm not near it.

    Every summer, I look forward to visiting there because I feel at ease by the sea. It's a place where I can forget about my worries and be completely at ease. It is a place where my family and friends may spend time together instead of having activities and places to be at home. 

    The beach is not overcrowded to the point where walking to the beach is difficult, and looking for shells is not an option. This beach is a serene and mystical sight. At this beach, the sounds of humans do not overwhelm you; all you can hear are the seagulls and the waves.


   "A day at the beach restores the soul." Unknown
 
    After years of resisting this type of relaxation in favor of sightseeing trips, I believe it took learning how to actually relax before I realized the importance of "trip balance." I now make it a priority to figure out what my body and mind require, and then I make plans to meet those needs. There's no place like the beach. It's the ultimate cure for whatever your heart is in need of: fun, relaxation, love, or reflection.

WHEN IN CAGWAIT, SURIGAO DEL SUR: SPACEBAR RESORT



  • "A GREAT ESCAPE"

    CAGWAIT, SURIGAO DEL SUR: SPACE BAR BEACH

    The Cagwait White Sand Beach is recognized as the Philippines' SPACEBAR beach and has the world's longest slide. The white sand beach is as wide as the spacebar button on the keyboard, hence the name "spacebar."



"Adventure is worthwhile." - Aesop

    It’s a magnificent beach in the province with a name derived from the local term "mura ug wait." Has a lengthy stretch of fine sand beach in the shape of a C. The sand on the beach isn't particularly white, but it's fluffy and comforting to the feet. The beach is enhanced by the presence of a variety of green plants and coconut trees. Many people refer to it as the “Little Boracay of CARAGA,” and famed pilot Charles Lindberg once compared it to Waikiki Beach in Hawaii, USA. This is an excellent tourist destination for those who simply want to relax and enjoy a less commercialized beach vacation.



    "The gladdest moment in human life, methinks, is a departure into unknown lands." -Sir Richard Burton

    

    Cagwait's beaches generate revenue for the municipal government. In exchange, the government keeps these beaches in good repair. I was astounded by the cleanliness of the landscape as I entered the resort's entrance. It was a stunning scenery that will make coming to the resort more enjoyable and intriguing for the guests.


    "Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore." - Andre Gide


    I noticed the Tourist Inn on the left side of the resort entrance. This inn caters to backpackers as well as any events such as conventions, seminars, reunions, and other special occasions. The resort's cottages are ideal for sightseeing. The white beach and splash of water make the trip worthwhile. The house was quite clean, which I greatly liked. One of my most memorable moments was the resort's breathtaking beauty. I admire their government's efforts to turn the area into a tourism attraction.


    "A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles." - Tim Cahill

    The beach is stunning and has been profoundly influenced by nature. With fewer commercial structures, this area is ideal for relaxation and vacation. The beach curve span is immaculate, with golden white sand. Since the waves are not as large as those seen on other beaches in Surigao del Sur, swimming activities such as snorkeling and diving are allowed.


    "An ocean breeze puts a mind at ease."

    The seawater in this location is not particularly forceful, goggles are not required because seawater contains fewer components that harm the human eye and induce soreness, eyes are protected from irritation. This is the ideal location for those looking for a low-cost, well-rounded experience of nature near the sea.


"One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeinf things." - Henry Miller


    Along the beach, there are a few resorts. We just looked at approximately four places before settling in the Spacebar Beach Resort. It's the only resort with a pool (yet unfinished) and a slide. None of these things are important to me as long as I enjoyed the view.   After almost 3 hours on the road, all that mattered was a spot to put my belongings and to take a dip in the sea.


    "Traveling- it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller." - Ibn Battuta

    The skies were clear, and the weather was ideal for daytime visits and incoming visitors. When witnessing a horseshoe-shaped paradise resort facing the Pacific Ocean with clear blue water combined with twinkling crystal when rays started to dance with water that bounces the enormous waves in the shorelines, it is captivating to say what others are telling.


    "Investment in travel is an investment in yourself." - Matthew Karsten

    Believing what you've seen of nature's wonders, all you have to do now is record the sights and noises that you've been missing since you were a child.

 

HOW TO GET THERE: ðŸ‘‡

We rented a van from Butuan City for our trip to Spacebar, Cagwait, and we also paid for the gasoline so that we could use the van whenever we wanted for convenience.

On the other note: Take a public bus to Tandag and get off at the Municipality of Cagwait, particularly at the White Sand Beach crossroads. Take a bus or van to travel to Tandag from Butuan City for regular flights from Luzon and Visayas.

 

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO VISIT SPACEBAR: ðŸ‘Œ

Some people believe that going to the beach at night is the best time to go because it is calm and serene. If you want to be active during the day, however, sunrise is preferable because there are fewer waves and the sea becomes quiet enough for swimming.

Early in the morning: If you're at the beach at this time, you can appreciate the dawn. You'll wake up to fresh clean air, which is fantastic for your hair, and the waters will be quiet, allowing you to enjoy a relaxing swim.


"As with any journey, whom you travel with is more important than the destination."


Would I visit Cagwait White Beach: SPACEBAR RESORT again? Yes. I prefer quiet, secluded beaches. (However, weekends are likely to be less crowded.) I'd probably spend at least two nights next time. To compensate for the long trip.


BREATHTAKING BEAUTY OF NATURE! HAPPY TRIP!😎
