The beach's sand is composed of weathering-formed crushed shells.[3][4]
Banana boat and jet ski services are offered to people staying in resorts. Fishing boats are also frequently seen near the shores; most of the catch of the fishermen are sold directly to resorts. Vendors roam the beaches, selling souvenir items such as bracelets and butterfly knives (Batangas Tagalog: balisong).[5]
