#Samar: Caba Beach, amazing white sand beach in a quiet town

Experience the relaxing sands and calming waters of Caba Beach in the lovely quiet barangay of Cabacungan.

The beach is a sandy gulf with aquamarine waters and white sand. The captivating water is gentle and inviting while the powdery white sand parts when you step on it. Feel your worries sink away in the sand as your feet do the same at the beach!

The water in the beach is shallow and it doesn’t get too deep until further into the gulf, making it great for dipping and leisurely soaking in the water. Furthermore, the narrow opening of the gulf breaks down the waves while letting the seawater in. This makes the water behave in the sweet spot of not being too strong, yet wavy and satisfying!

Caba beach is a popular spot for both tourists and locals. Besides the picture-perfect gulf, calm waters, and soft sand, another reason people keep coming back is that you won’t run out of options to have a good time.

On the beach, you can find a comfortable cottage to settle in and enjoy a picnic or a potluck with your friends and family. You can also rent a karaoke machine to jam and sing your heat out to while staying in the shade.

On the beachfront, the sand is wide enough to play some beach sports – who doesn’t love a round of beach volleyball or frisbee throwing? The sandy gulf is also lengthy enough that you can spend a good hour or two strolling the whole area. Then if you’re feeling adventurous, there’s a viewing rock on one end of the gulf with a breathtaking panorama of the gulf and the sea. It would require you to trek a little and climb some stairs, but the view is simply worth it.

You can also rent a kayak good for two people and paddle out into the gulf, or a paddleboard for a bit of that solo sailing vibe. The relatively calm water makes it a pleasing experience without tiring out your arms too quickly. For families and big groups, you can also rent a banana boat for an enjoyable group activity!
