Derived from the name of the Barangay that covers, Looc Pebble beach is one of the promising spots in Surigao City. Looc is the next barangay of Mabua. The beach is not yet a popular destination and there are only few accommodations within the area. In fact, our group were the only visitors during that day. Not yet popular, this is the best time to visit the beach and enjoy its serenity and exclusivity.
The area is a typical fishing village. Freshest air, good food/freshest seafoods, beautiful sunsets, kind and smiling villagers, and playing, happy kids – simply Looc…Compared to the coastline of Barangays Mabua and Ipil, Looc’s shoreline is composed of smaller stones or pebbles.

Looc Beach is more private and secluded. Unlike Pebble Beach, there are no resorts here, no eating establishments, no commercial activity – just an empty beach. Its beach area consists of fine wash-out stones to stones similar to that of Pebble Beach. There are some big boulders close to the bluff where you could get some shade. There is a road that takes you to the back of the Looc Beach but it seems quite a walk away. People usually hang at Pebble and walk up the bluff to Looc as part of the ‘Pebble Beach experience’.

Like other beaches in area, Looc beach has also been blessed with a long stretch of stones/pebble beach. The stones here are more fined mixed with white sands and other unique smooth stones. It’s also a good site to do camping or have an overnight stay with these affordable cottages. Locals make use of the earnings of these cottages to sustain and support their day to day living which is helpful because rest assured that it could be one of the cleanest beaches you will ever experience.
It’s also a good place to do surfing. If you have surfing board you may just make use of that since you cannot rent surf boards in the area for it’s not that famous yet. Perhaps in the future, I would invest and build a surfing site in the area and live my life that way spending life by the beach.
