Discovering Dakak

Perhaps one of the best white sand beaches the Philippines has is Dakak. It is a much smaller strip compared to Boracay and definitely less commercialized but I feel that Dakak Beach Resort in Dapitan is something that we can also be proud of. Dakak is more than just a beach resort. It is basically a hotel and park nestled in the coast of Zamboanga del Norte. It is around 20-30 minutes away from Dipolog City. You can arrange a van from the hotel to pick you up at Dipolog airport.



Once arriving in Dakak, I remember having received a complimentary welcome drink. After checking in, I was brought to my room which looked like a native hut but with the modern amenities anyone can find in a 3-star hotel.

The Resort has two swimming pools meandering in the center of the place with man-made falls and coconut trees surrounding the area. Wi-fi is available at the bar and reception area.




Every night a spectacular show would be staged during dinner for guests to enjoy. There was one night that was entirely Polynesian-inspired with drums and fire-dancing. One night was Filipino dances including ethnic singing and tunes.




Staying in Dakak can be expensive and I would suggest going there with friends or family. The view of the white sand beach and the blue clear waters while having one's breakfast is still worth it.
