About Jawili Beach
Jawili Beach is a white-sand coastal beach located in Barangay Jawili, municipality of Tangalan in Aklan Province, Western Visayas, Philippines. Situated along the Sibuyan Sea northwest of Kalibo, it is known for its fine light-colored sand, clear waters, scattered rock formations and relatively quiet, undeveloped shoreline. The beach serves as a local alternative to busier destinations and is often visited together with nearby Jawili Falls.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a long stretch of light-colored sand bordered by clear shallow water, scattered rock formations and coconut trees. The shoreline is relatively undeveloped and less crowded than Boracay, with open areas for swimming and wading, rented cottages and small food stalls along the beachfront. The setting is rural and coastal, with views of the Sibuyan Sea and nearby fishing boats, suitable for beach walks, photography and picnics.
