Baybayon ni Agalon in Albuera, Leyte

The newest and the most scenic picnic resort along the Ormoc - Albuera seacoast is the Baybayon ni Agalon in Malitbog, Albuera, Leyte just before entering the town proper of Albuera. With pebble stones for the beach, the waters are clear. There are two rafts moored a few meters from shore which can accommodate 20 to 30 persons. The rent is 150 per hour. They have a good number of beautifully made kiosks and two tree houses for group picnics. The resort has a sprawling lawn which is nicely landscaped. There is also a large swimming pool for those who prefer not to go to the beach. Entrance fee to the resort is at seventy pesos per person and the cottages go for 760 (promo price) for the tree house and 360 and 320 for the other kiosks. There is a restaurant inside, but one can also bring in food without having to pay corkage fee. Having just opened last summer, the resort had plenty of guests daily during the vacation period. Further from the beach just near the entrance by the swimming pool, there are also kiosks with fresh water cum fishpond underneath. They are at present building a mini hotel to cater to those who would like for an overnight or an extended stay. This is owned by the Iñaki Larrazabal Enterprises.
