Tangkaan Beach - A gem of Padre Burgos that captures the heart of every travelers 😍.

Residents of Brgy. Tangkaan witnessed a remarkable event when a mother turtle laid her eggs along the shore, where numerous boats were docked. Recently, as the eggs began to hatch, one resident carefully collected over 100 baby turtles from the nest, leaving a few unhatched eggs behind. On the same day, the baby turtles were released back into the wild, accompanied by Sir Cesar M. Tinambacan, our Municipal Agriculturist; Sir Joel Lacerna, his staff; Sir Alvin Bernales, our Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Officer; the Brgy. Tangkaan council members; and the lifeguard of Tangkaan Beach. This beautiful moment highlighted our community's dedication to protecting local wildlife and promoting marine conservation awareness.
