Cemento Beach: Baler, Aurora

Cemento Beach is a long stretch of light creamy sand, crushed corals and seashells. The area is suitable for snorkeling and wall diving during the calm season from April to June. Cemento Beach is also a haven for lobsters and other marine species. 


Near Cemento Beach is called the Cobra Reef (locally known as "Dapa"). The area produces excellent quality right brake waves over sharp reef. It is one of the spots most frequented by Australians, Europeans and Japanese surfers in Aurora. To reach Cobra Reef, one must walk from Cemento Beach through knee-high mangroves to get to the coral reef break. 

At Cobra Reef, the normal waves is about 5-6 feet high. During high season, it can reach up to 12-14 feet high. With that, it is sought after by experienced and professional surfers which makes surfing excellent and challenging.
