Places to Visit and Things to Do
In Sipalay, you can enjoy all forms of activities, from sports, family leisure, serene beaches, and small-town commercial area vibes.
If you just want to go to a public place with a fine white sand and look at people passing by, you will never get mistaken when you go to the public beach front.
If you want a place that is somewhat distant from the “commercial area”, you can choose the “sugar beach” area where there are multiple beach resorts.
If you want underwater adventures, you can go and try those in the Punta Ballo beach.
