Home to a truly diverse and colorful range of marine life, Sabang Beach offers visitors great scuba diving opportunities, with a host of dive shops nearby. Though the white sands of the beach are minimal--disappearing almost completely during high tide--and swimming is difficult due to the volume of boat traffic and moored vessels, the aquatic life off shore is vibrant and varied. Snorkelers can charter a boat out to the offshore coral garden, though it can get quite cool in these waters, so consider wearing a thin wetsuit. Those looking for a more immersive marine experience can take lessons from huge number of dive shops near the beach, offering courses for divers of all abilities. Those looking to sample the fruits of the sea will find many eateries serving up fresh seafood. A visit to Sabang Beach represents just the start of the adventure when you use our Puerto Princesa road trip planner to plot your vacation.

After being in lockdown for the past few weeks, this beach was the perfect local getaway. Beautiful sands and clear waters, and the water temperature is always just right. Definitely worth the trek...

When I think Philippines, I think about this beach. The colorful boats are something I have never seen before.

The place is awesome. You can relax here. There is an available van transport going here everyday. Sabang is where Underground River located. If you'd still remember, Underground River is listed as one of the 7th Wonder Nature of the World. There is a lot of small restaurants and inn here in Sabang. There is also a one available ATM machine near the pier and Underground River Office. When you are travelling here, they required you to be fully vaccinated. Yes, for me, the place is awesome. Have fun in Palawan.
