Talipanan Beach

13° 30.0′ N · 120° 53.2′ E

The westernmost of Puerto Galera's beaches, a long, quiet strand under the forested slopes of Mt Malasimbo near the Iraya Mangyan village and Talipanan Falls.

Practical

Position: OSM. Quieter than White Beach; reached by tricycle or included as a stop on island-hopping boat tours (Philippine Beaches guide). Talipanan Falls is a short trek inland - easier but much smaller than Aninuan Falls (2012 blog). Open to the north; landing by dinghy only in settled weather.

Best for

Quiet beach walk and the Mangyan village
