Buktot Beach : A Hidden Beauty in Mansalay

Are you a beach type of person? So I guess, you’ve been to Boracay or Puerto Galera or Palawan to take a dip in their blue waters or stroll down their finest and white sands.

I seldom go for a beach walk but when I heard about the virgin White Beach in Buktot, Mansalay, Oriental Mindoro, I've become super excited. The only white beach I’ve visited so far, is the one in Puerto Galera. So, we’ve made plans to visit the place and  last August 2011 we finally set foot on one of the many  hidden beauties of Oriental Mindoro. 

The name "Buktot" came from a native dialect term which means "hunchback". The place, they say is shaped like a hunch.

Here's the view of the shoreline.
