Salagdoong Beach

Description

Two coves split by a limestone headland on Siquijor’s northeast coast, run as a small government-managed resort with an entrance fee. The main draw is the pair of diving platforms built into the cliff — one around 5-7 metres, the other closer to 10 — plus a natural rock slide into the sea at high tide, with a lifeguard on duty. White sand, turquoise water, and food and drink stalls line the beach, making it more developed and more crowded than the San Juan beaches. Weekdays and early mornings are noticeably quieter than weekends.
