The Philippines is truly gifted with outstanding places that can make your travel experience memorable, relaxing, and amazing. There are some places in the Philippines that you can’t find anywhere else in the world.

We have virgin islands, pristine falls, caves, rock formations, and other tourists spots that can attract foreigners. One of which is the Sila Island in Northern Samar.

Sila Island is one of the seven islands that compose the island-municipality of San Vicente Northern Samar. These islands are the boast of white sand beaches, but Sila island has its own uniqueness. The sand in the island is pinkish. Read More: http://evlearners.com/pink-beach-northern-samar/

We beheld our first sight of the pink sand early in the morning upon waking up. A contributing factor to the making of the pink sand we found out is the hill besides the beach which is reddish in color that when pulverized by the waves and the wind becomes pink. The pink sand is found only in this one part of the island. There were plenty of small jelly fishes early in the morning in this part. Those with sting were quite itchy. However they disappeared by noontime. There were some good coral growth in this area. There are actually six islands and two islets almost surrounding each other: Sila, Tarnate, Sangputan, Panganuron, Maragat and Mahaba.

It is believed that the pink color of the sand came from the shattered remains of the dark red shells and skeletons of hermit crabs and the skeletons of corals, snails, and other sea shells in the seabed that were brought ashore by the waves.

The island is surrounded by sparkling water that is sometimes turquoise sometimes emerald green in color. There are also coconut trees that can add up to the relaxing ambiance of the beach.

According to the provincial tourism officer of Northern Samar, “Snorkeling, diving and swimming are some of the activities there, (but) only day picnics as of the moment for lack of tourist facilities.”

She also said that the visitors can do camping on Pink Beach, but you have to bring your own camping gears like tents and lamps. Read More: http://evlearners.com/pink-beach-northern-samar/
