Blessed with a whole host of beautiful white sand beaches to choose from, Sipalay is a picturesque tropical paradise popular with people of all ages and from all walks of life.
One of the best things about Sipalay is that there are a number of different beach areas. Many scuba divers head to Campomanes Bay, where there is a number of interesting wreck sites to explore, while other beach areas such as Sugar Beach are particularly good for sunbathing and swimming in the crystal clear waters.
But no matter which beach visitors choose, they are bound to find plenty of places to stay and delicious food. Fresh fish is particularly popular in Sipalay, especially in the evening when seafood barbeques line to shore, wafting their mouth-watering aromas into the balmy air.
