Basdaku White Beach

Basdaku White Beach is a long white-sand public beach in Barangay Saavedra, Moalboal, on the southwestern coast of Cebu, Philippines. Stretching about one kilometer along the Tañon Strait, it is known for its fine light-colored sand, clear shallow waters and views of Negros Island. The beach is a popular day-trip and camping spot for swimming, sunbathing and snorkeling, with nearby resorts, cottages and food stalls serving visitors.

Visitors can expect a wide, open stretch of light white sand bordered by clear, shallow water and lined with coconut trees, nipa cottages and small eateries. The beach is largely public and developed with low-rise resorts behind the shoreline. Areas are available for swimming, wading, beach walks, photography and overnight tent camping. The water is generally calm for swimming and snorkeling near shore, with views across Tañon Strait to Negros Island and sunset views in the evening.

The name Basdaku is derived from the Cebuano phrase 'basa daku' meaning 'big sand', referring to the beach's long expanse of sand. The beach has long served as a public shoreline for the fishing community of Saavedra and developed as a local recreation area for Moalboal.

Basdaku White Beach is a community beach and gathering place for residents of Saavedra and Moalboal, used for local festivals, family outings and traditional beach camping. It is part of Moalboal's coastal tourism area known for marine activities along Tañon Strait.
