💡 Tips

  • Visit Inagawan Beach on weekdays to avoid the weekend crowds coming from Puerto Princesa City.
  • Watch out for stingrays in the shallows; shuffle your feet in the sand to alert them of your presence.
  • Use Inagawan as a more budget-friendly jump-off point for exploring the islands near Kamia Bay.
  • Look for public picnic huts along the beach which can be rented for a small fee for the day.
  • Time your swimming for high tide, as the water recedes quite far during low tide.
