Title: Tondol Beach in Pangasinan

When we talk about Tondol Beach in Anda Panagasinan of course I tried to go there because it is near from our house in pangasinan. When I was an Elementary I am in vacation in Anda Pangasinan then we go for a swimming in that Tondol Beach. It is so nice beach, because it is having white sand just like boracay. Tondol Beach is located on the eastern part of the island municipality of Anda in Pangasinan. It took around 30 minutes to get to the beach from the mainland. Anda, known to be the Mother Island of the Hundred Islands is located at the Northwest portion of the Lingayen Gulf. Anda is an island municipality of Pangasinan.  If you prefer a tranquil and serene place for this summer, perfect the art of doing nothing and then Anda is the place for you.

The people from this place are very hospitable too. Tondol Beach is the flagship resort of Anda in Pangasinan. Since this town is located between Alaminos (where the Hundred Islands are) and Bolinao, you can expect that it is a home to unexplored beaches such as Tondol. This undiscovered paradise is one of the cheapest beaches that I have visited. I would never forget that the entrance fee to this resort is only Php5 per person and the large cottage which can cater up to 10 people just costs Php250. I didn't think something amazing can be worth Php5 only. There is a cemented pathway along the shoreline which enables everybody to walk and move further to the other parts of the beach.

            Tondol beach has fine white sand and a long stretch of shallow water.  It is a perfect getaway without the hassle, the noise and the crowd of the more known beaches in the Philippines. There are few and very cheap resorts in Tondol that offer perfect comfort for a night or two. Camping is also allowed in this community based resort. Tondol have restaurants and their prices are affordable. Tondol Beach is definitely the best beach in Pangasinan and perfect when the tide is low. During low tide low you would be able to walk from Tondol beach to Tanduyong island just about  800 meters away. Enjoy the beauty of white fine particle sand likened to Boracay, visit Tondol Beach at Anda, Pangasinan. You can be at this place few minutes from the town proper. The beach is not polluted by restaurants around just like other beaches. It has been maintained and can be considered on still on it is virgin state. It is a nice choice to visit and have fun. How to go there? If you’re coming from Metro Manila, take the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) and continue on to Tarlac via the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX). From Tarlac City take the road to Camiling and on to Alaminos. From Alaminos, continue on the road going to Bolinao pass the town of Bani. There is a fork on the road after Bani that goes on to Anda.

Assuming the best way is to get a bus that passes by Alaminos (Victory, Five Star and the like). From Alaminos one can get a mini bus to Anda town proper and then a trike to Tondol Beach.
