MABUA PEBBLE BEACH. Barangay Mabua, Surigao City. Thirty minutes by land westward from the city is this kilometer-long stretch of multi-sized pebble beach. Laden with parallel lines of native cottages set in the natural backdrop of coconut tree-laced hills and deep cool waters, the place is ideal for swimming, windsurfing, jetskiing or simply, lying in wait for the occurence of its dramatic sunset.
