Anawangin Cove in Zambales - A True Paradise

The province of Zambales is home to many marvelous natural attractions that cannot be found anywhere else in the world.  Anawangin Cove is one such marvel, a hidden paradise virtually untouched by human development. Because of the idyllic scenery it possesses, Anawangin is quickly becoming one of the fastest rising tourist destination in the country. Anawangin Cove has long been a first-class spot that boasts tourism in the Philippines.


Anawangin is a crescent shaped cove with a pristine white sand beach. What makes the place unique is the unusual riddle of tall pine trees flourishing around its vicinity.


The cove's relative isolation has kept it free from development, save for a few huts and deep wells. Just behind the beach is the pine forest and a marsh, where one can find natural springs feeding to the sea. The area is home to a number of bird species.


This is really a true paradise!
