Locals call this place Onay Beach. The prized possession of Brgy. Onay (Doña Luisa), this golden beach is the most popular swimming spot in the island of Laoang, located a couple of minutes off the coast of the north-eastern tip of Northern Samar. Blanketed in a glowing mixture of white, black, and brown grains, Onay Beach reflects the afternoon sun and glitter as if the sand is golden.

Onay Beach is a long, long stretch, with one side fringed with thick vegetation and the other soaked in turquoise water. As I stood at the mouth of the main access point in the middle of the cove, I could hardly see its north end, seemingly disappearing in the droplets that the waves spray into the air.

There was only one beach I knew when I was a kid.

Over the years, I’ve been lucky to experience some of the best beaches in the country. But still, when I hear the word beach, I never think of those powdery white sand of the popular ones, all I think about is Onay Beach in my hometown Laoang, Northern Samar.

It’s beautiful and pristine.

Most of all, Onay has some of the vivid memories of my childhood. Until now, I could still feel the mist, the smell of the wind coming from the Pacific Ocean. The laughter…our laughter when we were kids, how could I forget that.   Read More: https://jontotheworld.com/onay-beach-laoang/

Scimitar-like beach facing Laoang Bay with bracingly cool blue waters on fine white sand ideal for swimming, surfing and snorkeling; lined with swaying coconut trees. Below the tress are cottages and nipa huts intended for tourist and excursionists, about 1.68 km northwest of the town proper. It is frequently visited by the town folks of Laoang, as well as, residents from neighboring towns like, Catubig and Las Navas especially during Saturdays and Sundays. The Onay Beach Covers an area of 4 hectares.   Read More:  http://laoang.blogspot.com/
