Are you planning a trip here this summer and want to see some of the best sights in Mindanao?
This is the Harip white sand beach, which is found in the municipality of Hinatuan, Surigao del Sur.
This is an opened tourist attraction that can accommodate not just locals but also visitors from all around Mindanao and the Philippines, and from the outside of the country. The "DAVINCE-Hidden Paradise" resort is located on this white sand beach and offers accommodations for overnight stays as well as cottages for day tours. There are public cottages and several vacant spots around the resort that are suited for campers or guests who have brought tents. Yes, tents! As you can see right beside me along the beach.
The splendor of this secret beach will wow you. Swear!
This is the resort's primary view and the nicest point on the Harip white sand beach. A basic view of the open sea with a detailed rock structure that provides calm, relaxation, and contentment.
My wondrous view!
Pictorial time! Haha
The place has no internet or cellular coverage, so that means you and your family and friends can get together well.
When you eventually arrive, the beach is breathtaking! The individuals are helpful and friendly. The waves are great for surfing and the lovely white sand is thick.
Yes! The sand is thick and super nice!
Harip white sand beach is hardly crowded because of its isolated position, and it feels and looks untouched and personal. To be honest, the long and exciting voyage is well worth it.
A very beautiful sunset at 5pm. Don’t miss it!
If you have a low-ward car, don't take the detour path; instead, take the regular path and park near the closed bridge; however, people can still cross to get to Harip beach. However, if you are traveling to Harip Beach in a pick-up truck, motorcycle, or jeepney and want to see a virgin forest, take this diversion way, but make sure you have the best driver in your company to drive.
By the way, aside from the difficulties we encountered on the crazily hard and cliff-side road as a detour path to Harip due to a bridge closure for improvement on the usual path to Harip. (The Road is under construction)
PS: Don't be afraid to ask for directions from people along the road; they'll be happy to assist.
How to reach there is as follows:
The main Landmark of the road leading to Barangay Harip is located along the National Highway of Hinatuan, a road access going to Barangay Talisay, Hinatuan, where the famed "Enchanted River of the Philippines" is also located.
When you get to the "Enchanted River" parking area, turn left and look for the signs to barangay Harip along the road. If you don't have your own vehicle, take a habal-habal trip to barangay Talisay along the highway access route. Rates could range from 100 to 300 PHP.
Take notice that this is approximately 30 kilometers off the highway, so be sure to fill up your vehicle's petrol tank or at least half of it because this is a remote area with no gas stations unless you come across bottled gas, which is widely used for habal-habal refill.
