Ceferina Beach Resort — Attraction in Manapla

This does not seem to be an actual beach as commonly understood, i.e. a place where you can step into water and swim. This looks more like a mangrove forest where the owners pulled out some trees and put up sheds for people to picnic and sing karaoke. The "beach" is a strip of sand, after which there is a strip of black mud, and then ankle-deep brown-black water for as far as the eye can see. (Sometimes one can see a fellow walking ankle-deep in the sea a couple hundred meters away, almost like Jesus walking on the Sea of Galilee).

This must have been during low tide of course; I suppose during hight tide one can try to swim, but I don't know if swimming in two-feet deep water with muddy bottom is anyone's idea of fun.

And, yeah, the road to this "beach" is a dirt road with lots of potholes. Don't go there...

It’s a mud flat… great for collecting shells for dinner if you go out at least 100 meters. Close to shore is way too dirty to trust shellfish. Be prepared to get covered with mud on your way in and out. Sludge is deep along shoreline.

No good swimming because water is so nasty at the “beach”. Very busy though! Huts are nice, view is good, fun place with lots of room for big groups. Bathrooms are disgusting though, which is rough because if you go into the ocean you definitely need to...

Ceferina is one of my favorite beach, because, it's a beautiful place, to chill with your family, friends, classmates and even your love once. 😘 Soon i want to try their swimming pool, last kasi nong pumunta ako kasama ko yung mga kaklase ko kasi birthday nila so first time ko na pumunta don kasi taga Cadiz City ako at ng aaral sa CSAV. 😉 so that's why gusto ko subukan mg swimming sa pool diyan with my friends but soon. 😂 ipon...
