Others rather prefer the northern part of Cebu in Bantayan or Camotes for the breathtaking long stretch white sand beaches and of course thresher shark diving in Malapascua. But Cebu is not just the south and the north, there is also the western part that is yet to be explored. Today, let me guide you to the beauty of northwest Cebu.
The sleeping town of Tabuelan has risen after the Maravilla Beach Resort has gone famous because of its long stretch beautiful white sand beach and crystal blue seawater. The laid back town of Tabuelan is now a favorite go-to place for families, friends, lovers, and even single soul searchers to unwind and relax.
Resorts and homestays have increased together with the town’s progress. Before, Maravilla Beach is best known for its set-up tent and even referred to as the new beach tent city of Cebu next to Moalboal. It is still true today but the resort options have improved to cater to visitors like families who preferred a more comfortable stay.
Living in a tropical country means beach whole year-round and summer even on rainy days.
