Sigayan Bay has six kilometers of beach and water frontage with preserved mangrove areas. The terrain is a level to gently rolling coastal plain surrounded by high ground and mountains of up to 705 meters above sea level (Mt. Daguldol).

Fun in the Sun

Laiya Coco Grove Resort Complex is unusually spacious with surrounding beach, mountain, and marine environments that enhance the tropical resort setting. The improvements that have been introduced make Laiya’s natural attributes enjoyable for a day, a weekend, or several days holiday stay. Our guests have a wide range of options – from camping to air-conditioned tree houses - their own cookouts at several picnic locations or hearty and wholesome meals at the Pavilion In addition to pure relaxation, peace, and privacy, there are recreational and sports activities for the whole family. The following pages provide in-depth information as to the facilities and sports programs available to our guests.

Laiya Coco Grove’s swimming pool is located near the beach and is surrounded by a large deck area. The pool is deliberately shallow (4 feet throughout) with a circular kiddie-pool area. A tennis-cum-basketball court is available as an amenity for guests on a first-come-first-serve basis. For tennis, guests are requested to bring their own rackets and balls. Beach volleyball is an amenity for guests. Any number of informal courts can be provided. LCG has native ponies suitable for horseback riding for children and lighter adults. A nominal fee is charged for the rental of the ponies and saddles, and handlers. A trampoline is available for guests weighing up to 220 lbs. The set is equipped with a safety enclosure for the guests’ enjoyment. Safety rules apply when using the trampoline. It’s great fun and exercise! Darts, board games, playing cards are available to resort guests.

Sailing is a featured activity with a fleet that consists of Streakers, mono-hull dinghies, and Hobie Cat catamarans. LCG Aqua Guides are available to assist or sail with the guests. The fleet provides equipment for a progressive training program. Starting with the Streaker, adults can begin their sailing experience. The Streakers are also suitable for single-handed sailing even for novice sub-teeners. The next level is the Hobie 17 equipped with a training main sail and without a jib. This configuration allows the novice to get the feel of the catamaran sailing, using a boat that is somewhat under powered and, therefore, more manageable for a beginner. The Hobie 16, with standard main sail and jib, is the final step for an intensive two- to three-day-sailing program. The H-16 requires a crew of two to sail the boat. A very experienced Hobie sailor can handle the H-16 in reasonable wind and sea conditions. With strong winds, the H-16 is a fast, powerful, and, therefore, thrilling sailing adventure. Along with the hands-on experience, instruction materials are available. A single individual, a family or group of friends who want to experience something new and exciting during their holiday, should seriously consider the sailing option.

Ocean Kayaks and Pedal Boats

A fleet of kayaks and pedal boats is available for use. These recreational watercraft may be used along Sigayan Bay’s six kilometers of shoreline or while fishing at the fresh-water lake. Nominal fees and safety rules apply.

Mask, Fins, and Snorkels

A range of sizes are available suitable for children to large sizes for adults. Guided snorkeling excursions to nearby coral gardens can be arranged.
