An old Talisay tree. |
On the way to Jagna from Mabini, we decided to check out Anda beach. So we took the interior road going to Anda. Anda, just 7-8 kilometers from the main highway, is a sleepy town located at the Northeastern side of Bohol.
We arrived past 12 noon and the sun was in its full ascent. We immediately got off from the car and checked out the beach which is just a little more than a hundred meters from the town church and a few meters from the open field (plaza) in front of the church.
Needless to say, I was impressed by the fine white sand. It is so white that it glared under the mid-day sun and one cannot look at it without wearing sunglasses. All the time, I was squinting in between shots, and could not help but to wear my sunglasses.
I did not waste any time. I moved around a bit and took some photos to make the most of our short side trip to this part of Bohol.
The pictures tell it all!
The fine, white sand public beach. The brown dirt scattered are seagrasses washed to the shore. |
This beach was a landing site for American troops during WWII, thus this monument. |
The town church. |
The town plaza. |
A tall pedestal with the image of the Sacred Heart |
If given the chance, I would love to come back here.

Mas maganda kesa Panglao, Christian. Yup! recommended! may mga beach resorts din. But this is the public beach. may mga kainan naman if you want to stay nang maghapon lang.
Hmmm. Interesting. Now i have one good reason to go back to Bohol. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Riz! Yup, this also becomes a motivation for me to go back! Thanks!
beautiful beach! Sayang d ko to napuntahan dati. :(
@wander shugah, more reason to go back to Bohol!
walang mga places to stay overnight?
There are resorts christian. May mga nadaanan kami along the hi-way na mga billboards. But I think may malapit namang resort dito sa public beach.
We love the photos (especially the first one with the tree). The beach really does look pristine. ^^ We decided to share it on our site. Thanks!
