From destruction to a perfect destination. Nagsasa Cove was once destroyed by Mt. Pinatubo explosion 22 years ago which covered the beach with ashes and destroyed the coral reefs. But years later, it became one of the best beach destination to visit. It has a beautiful ash-gray sand that turns white during noon. Its crystal-clear waters that almost reflects the sky will make you want to dip all day.
This great vacation spot can be reached via boat or if you want to be more adventurous, you can do trek to reach the beach.
