See the beauty of Olivia Sands Uraya Beach Resort located at IGACOS-Island Garden City of Samal. From Sasa Wharf Station in Davao City you will ride a barge and you will dock in Samal Island in just 10-15minutes. Samal is already popular in Mindanao due to its outstanding beautiful resorts that suits to your needs and of course affordable too.
One of my favorite beach here is in Olivia Sands Uraya, I'd been here many times but it is only my first time experienced seeing her naked beauty just like you've seen now.
As you can see the beach is very wide and cozy very relaxing view even it's low tide, aside from that you'll see baby mussels.
In front of this beach is the popular Wishing Island many tourists visited here making wishes and enjoy sliding there from the top of the cliff.
