Poctoy White Beach – Torrijos, Marinduque

Poctoy White Beach, also officially known as Torrijos White Beach, is a roughly one-kilometre stretch of fine, powdery white sand managed by the Municipality of Torrijos in Marinduque. It is consistently cited as one of the best beaches in the province and is popular during the Moriones Festival season. The beach faces a calm bay with clear blue-green water suited for swimming, and the setting includes coconut palms and scenic sunset views across the channel toward Romblon. Government-managed cottages and a basic resort infrastructure exist on-site. Overnight tent camping is permitted on the beach. Campers who bring their own tent pay only the entrance fee (PHP 25) and environmental fee (PHP 50); tent rental is available on site for PHP 400–500 per night. Air-conditioned overnight cottages good for six persons cost PHP 1,500 (low season) to PHP 2,000 (peak season). Marinduque is accessible by ferry from Lucena or Dalahican Port in Quezon, and Torrijos is reached by van or jeepney from Boac. Mt. Malindig, the island's highest peak, is visible from the beach and is a popular day-hike from nearby Buenavista.
