About Talipanan Beach
Talipanan Beach is a sandy coastal beach in Barangay Aninuan, Puerto Galera, Oriental Mindoro, Philippines, located west of the busier White Beach. Known for its quieter atmosphere, light-colored sand, calm waters and views of the Verde Island Passage, it is lined with small resorts and restaurants. The beach offers a more relaxed alternative for swimming, sunbathing and sunset viewing while remaining accessible from Puerto Galera town and the Balatero port area.
