Beaches of Baybay

Baybay Beach, 3 kilometers from the city proper, this clean black sand beach has beach houses, motorboats for boating and fishing. Also a good place for water sports like skim boarding and water skiing or for simply basking in the sun, swimming in the cool water and taking a walk along the shore feeling the waves lap at your feet. The island seen in this picture is Mantalinga.

Olotayan Island is farther away. It is beautiful with white sand beaches. 30 minute pump boat ride from Banica wharf, Roxas City. This 53 hectares island is blessed with colorful fishes and coral reefs. Its crystal-clear water and abundant marine life is ideal for swimming, snorkeling and scuba diving. The island’s beach is carpeted with tiny crushed shells called cascaho. With its serene and "out of the city hassle", this quiet little island is for couples and businessmen who wants to take a break from it all.
