GUISI BEACH & LIGHTHOUSE

Guisi Beach is a stretch of white sand (though not as whote and as fine as other beaches) with luxuriant palm trees dotted with some interesting rock formations. The water of the beach is an inviting shade of blue and green, despite not as crystal clear as other beaches I have been to. Nonetheless, the beach itself has this unique charm that will keep you drawn.

When I arrived there, it was exactly how I have seen in it photos. Really picturesque! I personally love the rocks at one side of the beach. Also, I was fortunate because there weren’t many people then. A local mentioned that during the weekends, many locals flock their way to this beach. There are a couple of resorts within the area from which one could choose from in case you intend to stay overnight. Read More:  https://nojuanisanisland.com/2015/08/10/guisi/

Guisi Beach is known for its white sands and rock formations. Like in most part of Guimaras, a good number of yellow rocks can also be found on this beach. Despite the beach’s admirable beauty, its isolation and modest size seem to result in a fewer visitors. But this would also mean that you can enjoy your stay here with greater intimacy and tranquility.

The beach’s most noticeable rock is uniquely shaped like a broccoli. It’s quite a puzzling sight that will make you wonder how long it took nature to form it. A rock that has a peculiar shape like this is the only kind that we’ve seen in the country so far. In spite of its distinct characteristic, it’s not getting much attention perhaps because of its size unlike the similar-looking rocks in Phuket Thailand.  Read More:  https://www.wonderingwanderer.com/guisi-beach-nueva-valencia-guimaras/

Guisi Beach is one of my favorite destinations in Guimaras Island. For most, its main attraction is its excellent beach and clear waters but I like it most because of the 18th century Spanish colonial lighthouse and its enchanting coves and rock formations.

Their sand is not totally white … more like yellowish, which could be because of the vast limestone deposits in Guimaras . I was surprised to notice their shore getting shorter and  became more rocky.  Nevertheless, everyone can still enjoy the crystal clear and refreshing waters in Guisi.

When in Guisi, you should explore the area at the right side of the beach (best during low tide) since there are many hidden coves, small sandbars, and interesting rock formations. Me and my friends like to go cliff jumping at some of the tall rocks (just be sure to jump in an area clear of rocks).  Read More:  http://www.ambot-ah.com/overnight-in-guisi-clearwater-resort/
