The southern part of Cebu has been synonymous to
the adventures of Alegria’s canyoneering, whale shark watching in Oslob, scuba
diving or basking at the long strip of white sand of Moalboal, and hiking the
ruggedly striking mountains of Osmena Peak. This part of its territorial domain
is absolutely filled with wide array and diverse activities, and anyone who plans
to travel to the South will surely encounter pleasure beyond experience.
After scouting, and spoiling ourselves with
waterfalls for three days while chasing the wonders of Badian, Alegria, and
Samboan, I asked my cousin Lester for a neighboring coastline, and he pointed
us to this route.
“Ah! So this is Lambug Beach”, I said to myself, glancing
my watch that ticks at 04:05 mid-afternoon while strolling around the sandbar
that spells laid back from the noise of metropolitan Cebu.
“Kuya Jun, let’s continue walking to that spot as it offers much finer sands.” My cousin Lester suggested. While arriving to this part, I had noticed how this long stretch coastline surprised me with powdery-like sands. And to my amazement, I found myself quietly dipping at the ocean. We stayed at Lambug for few moments, and decided to continue our path to other destination- Moalboal before sun down.

During the course of our journey, a quick
remembrance caught my attention; “The tropical warmth, calming atmosphere, and turquoise
water facing the Island of Negros in the western part serenade my experience.”
TOUCHDOWN:
The beach is somehow far from the main road. Once
you see a Filipino-Korean Restaurant located at the right side of the highway
in Badian, follow the path that leads to Lambug. Once you reached a Golf
Course, follow the narrow yet asphalted road. Signs going to this coastline are
installed for an easy travel. According to my cousin, if you’re traveling with
a private 4-wheel transportation, travel time from Alegria to Lambug beach will
lead you to a 15-minute ride. In our case while riding a private motorcycle, we
reach the destination an approximate of 25 minutes or so from Sta Filomena.
The beach is for the public to enjoy, which means,
there is no entrance fee. Additionally, tents are said to be allowed. Cottages,
and other accommodations are also situated in the area.
“Solely
under the management of the municipality of Badian as per approved “special
agreement on protected areas” (SAPA) issued by the DENR.
No one
is currently authorized to collect entrance fees, parking fees, and beach usage
fees. Unless official receipt is duly issued by the LGU-Badian’s authorized
personnel.”
