Default Best beaches in Siquijor?

I went to Siquijor on my last trip about 2 months ago and stopped by The Norwegian Dream Resort. Even though the beach was beautiful, I found that the bottom was not very sandy when swimming... It was rather hard/rocky and it was extremely shallow. Is this the case for all of Siquijor, or are there parts that have sand stretching out far, and where I don't have to walk 1 km to get past my knees? If so, where, and which resort would be best? I'm not too much into diving and snorkeling - just want to enjoy the swimming.

Default None here . . . .

Yes, all the beaches are bad, nothing there for tourists . . . but I think there are some beautiful beaches in Puerta Gallera . . .

i know one resort in Siquijor its name Kiwi.. it's simple one, for me its good for swimming there.. a lot to see if i go for snorkeling.. its not so shallow to swim.. and its not hard to walk on the beach because its sandy and no much rock to step when i go walking and if swimming is done and back to my room.. peaceful not over crowded. good for simple vacation..

Default Beaches @ Siquijor

It depends on the different tides, which "beach" is best. The West Coast is not the best area for swimming over sand nor for diving or snorkeling. Better is the mentioned place Kiwi or Casa de la Playa or Islander Paradise in the north. Here at the south you can have this nice beaches at several private Accommodations (just send me a PM) and at "The Danish Lagoon Resort", Coco Grove (very expensive). Royal Cliff Resort.

Tropical Greetings from Siquijor, the most mystic Island of all 7.107 Philippine Islands!
