Puraran Beach, Catanduanes Island Philippines

This is where you can find Puraran beach -- it’s listed as one of the top surfing locations in the
world. Like most beaches here, it isn’t been developed so it’s basically small makeshift huts, sand and amazing waves. Puraran beach is the surfing capital of Catanduanes, it has clean white beach it is also internationally known as Majestic. Barras beaches on the other hand, is not as white as the other beaches but it boasts of clean and clear waters. Puraran Beach, Baras, Catanduanes Province -- One of my five office secretaries Mela said that her home province is one of the best kept secrets of Philippine tourism due to its world-class surfing sites and awesome white-sand beaches. March to August are the best times to visit.

The general landscape of the Catanduanes island is hilly to mountainous, becoming more pronounced towards the central portion. Less than 10 percent of the land area has slope gradient under 8 percent, mostly fractured and narrow strips of plains dispersed near the coastal areas where most of the inhabitants are settled. Once in Tabaco Point you have three ferries to choose from to get yourself to Catanduanes. From San Andres to Virac you can either jump on a Jeepney or take a trike, whatever your fancy. The perfect time to visit Catanduanes is from the months of March to August when the weather turns dry. It is coolest and rainiest from October to the early part of January, hottest from March to May.
