The White Sands of Candabong, Anda, Bohol and the History Behind

Presumably it was the highlight of our outing in Bohol. Last December 30, we trooped from the mountains of Sudlon, Alicia, Bohol, where my wife hails, to the enchanting white sands of Candabong, Anda, a nearby by town, for a cool Rizal Day sprinkle.

The shoreline was open. We paid truly nothing to get in. The sand was smooth white and not fake, unlike those in other private resorts in the district. At the most inaccessible end of the semi-oval stretch of white sand is a little shake/island shaped like a trooper's top. Along the shore were lines of barges and cottages lying without moving, as if time has stopped in that corner of the world.

When we met up (around 9am) there was nobody there. We had the whole spot to ourselves. Right when my 5-year old tyke saw the spot, he smiled the separation up to his ears. By then he plunged and spent the whole day on the water. A few diverse social occasions arrived later, however there was still a great deal of space surrounded. Undoubtedly, there was a considerable measure of space to do our barbecue and some cooking.

Our most noteworthy cost that day was the transportation going there. All distinctive expenses were inconsequential. The rent for the cabin was simply P150. The rent for the floats (extended tire inward parts) went just from P20 to P50 for unfathomable use. By chance, we were educated that you can take a pump vessel ride, beginning with one point then onto the following, for simply P150.

I was totally enchanted by the spot. I didn't understand that there was some other place in Bohol with shorelines that can rise to those in Dauis and Panglao. There is. Anda, a fifth class area put 100km from Tagbilaran, is home to a significant measure of white-sand shorelines which have been delineated as "better than...".

To be totally straightforward, alongside the shorelines, I found that the town in like manner has a waterfalls (Anda Falls at Barangay Casica) and a "mountain paradise" at Barangay Tanod and Linawan. Moreover not simply that. I also found that Anda has a rich history as showed by primitive internment hollows (Candabong, Bacong, Virgen, Casica and Talisay) and rock canvases (Lamanok Point, Barangay Badiang) set on feigns beside the sea.

Its rich history thrived as the years advanced. The town was definitively made in the midst of the Spanish period and named after Representative General Simon de Anda y Salazar. Its church had Spanish priests up to as late as 1937, the last one being Fr. Luis Llorente, who left long after Spain ceded the Philippines to the United States.

As if these were lacking trivia, Anda is home to the recondite (some say remarkable) remains/tomb of Potenciana Saranza (Inday Pontenciana), a teacher from Gingoog City, who after her downfall in 1953, had purportedly performed extraordinary events by recovering the crippled. Numerous people now go to her asylum and think about her as a "sacred individual".
