Basdaku Beach: A Little Paradise in the South

A little trivia, the term ‘Basdaku’ is derived from two Cebuano words “bas” and “daku” which means ‘sand’ and ‘big’, respectively. The name literally describes the kilometer-long coastline of the beach. 

A perfect example would be the Basdaku White Beach, nestled in Moalboal in southern Cebu. For only ₱10-20 (depending from where you enter), you can experience Basdaku Beach’s wide shoreline and its crystal clear waters and pure white sand. 

What are you waiting for? Go and revel in one of Cebu’s finest beaches.

How to get there?

From South Bus Terminal, ride a bus bound for Moalboal via Barili or Badian. Then ask to be dropped off at Gaisano Grand Mall Moalboal or Moalboal town proper. Another option would be by van, which is also available at One Citilink Terminal. Travel time is 2-3 hours depending on traffic conditions.

Once you’ve reached the town of Moalboal, you can hire a tricycle to take you to Basdaku or White Beach.
