Boracay de Cavite (as most people would call it) is a small cove located inside Gregorio Lim Marine Base in Calumpang Ternate, Cavite. Officially named Katungkulan Beach Resort, the beach has gray-ish sand (not white, though in photos it would look like white to off-white) that is so fine and soft to the feet. One of the most striking features of Boracay de Cavite is the towering stone wall on one side of the cove perfect for your "selfie" and "cam-whoring" moments. The water is not turquoise blue, but its clean. Corregidor Island and the Mariveles mountain range in Bataan are also visible from the cove. Isn't awesome?
