Daanbantayan is dubbed as the “tourist haven in the north”. Mostly coastal, it boasts only the best of what the nature has to offer. It has unsullied powdery-white sandy beaches especially in the “Pacific Island Dream”, the world-renowned Malapascua Island, rich garden of underwater flora and fauna, teeming with different kinds of hard and soft corals, fishes, sea snakes, unusual nudibranch or sea slugs, sponges and many more.
