Malinao Beach

Malinao Beach is a sandy shoreline in General Luna with white sand and palm trees scattered across the area, providing natural shade for visitors. The gentle waters and wide beach make it suitable for swimming, walking, and relaxing without crowds or commercial structures.

The beach became known when travelers discovered it while exploring areas near the restricted Dedon Island Resort nearby. This accidental discovery turned it into an alternative to the better-known beaches in the region.

Local families and travelers share the beach freely, creating informal gatherings along the shore without barriers or commercial formality. The open, welcoming nature of the space encourages simple encounters and everyday interactions between community members and visitors.

The beach is reachable by local trike from General Luna town, with a short ride that is affordable for most visitors. It works best as a quiet morning or late afternoon visit when fewer people are around.

The beach remains completely free to visit with no entrance fees or commercial facilities, setting it apart from other developed beaches nearby. This simplicity keeps it quiet and makes it a place many visitors choose to return to.
