Tropicana Beach in General Santos City - Philippines

Tropicana Beach is located at the town of Tambler in General Santos City. To go there, one will just have to take a 20 to 30 minute ride from General Santos City's downtown area. And, if one wants to take a trip or a tour of the beaches that the city offers, it is best to go to the route that takes them to Tropicana Beach, because not far from it, just around 50 meters away, is another beautiful beach, the Maharlika Resort.

Once at Tropicana Beach, be prepared for dozens other tourists that commonly flock there to savor the peaceful ambience that the beach brings. Even in the early mornings, expect to see Tropicana Beach already crowded with beachgoers, as it is usually best to check out the pacifying atmosphere in this tourist spot first thing during the day. This could be attributed to the refreshingly cool breeze that circulates throughout the place whatever time of the day it is, whether during the day or during the night.

Also, check out the pretty beach resort managed by an RD Group of Companies affiliate, as well as a swimming pool, and several dive spots. When diving, expect to be thrilled by tiny corals and the sandy sea floor. On shore, expect an equally picturesque surrounding with clear blue skies, pure white sand, and sea green waters. And, if most beachgoers go to beaches to see the sunset, at Tropicana Beach, see the best sunrise ever in the planet, resplendent of the quiet and serenity of the place. Perhaps this is the very reason why it is called Tropicana, a name from which emanates that fresh feeling that only the wonders of the tropics could give.

Accommodations at Tropicana Beach range from budget hotels to cottages. For hotels, one of the most advisable to go to is the Dolores Hotel, which, aside from offering its guests 34 air conditioned rooms, also boasts of two function rooms which can be used for corporate functions or even parties. For food, you could either go to Dolores Hotel or to the only restaurant in the area, the Sarangani Highlands restaurant. At the Sarangani Highlands restaurant, not only will tourists be able to savor delicious Filipino food and sample dishes made from GenSan's prize ingredient, tuna, they will also be able to check out other eye candies that the town of Tambler has to offer, such as the Sarangani Bay, Mount Matutum, Mount Parker, and downtown GenSan. Even the landscaping of the Sarangani Highlands restaurant is a welcome treat, what with its all nature setting.
