It is said to be one of the best, if not the very best, beaches in Pangasinan. It is the perfect place to go if you are looking for peace, quiet, and zen. However, the place is also flexible enough to be the place for those who want to make their own music (depending on how good one’s singing voice is when one sings on the karaoke machine). It could very well be a haven for photography enthusiasts, hobbyists, and even professionals. The use of the beach volleyball court, hammocks, and WiFi is free.

JE's Bagoong Factory

Lingayen, Pangasinan

Just reading the word 'bagoong' tickles the nose and reminds you of that pungent, familiar, fishy smell. Filipino dishes like Pinakbet and Kare-Kare never fail to miss getting partnered with bagoong simply because every dish tastes better with it. That's why Juanito and Lily Palisoc have decided to put up a Bagoong business instead of migrating to the US. Apart from the classic shrimp paste, JE's also offers new products like Padas (Siganid) and Ginisang Alamang (sauteed shrimp fry).
