It's more fun in Sarangani

Its more Fun In Sarangani!!!!



When it’s time to get away from it all, those who seek an escapade choose Sarangani Province.  Get glorious white sand… Dive into the abyss…  See with thousand-year-old relics…  Tube down a ferocious river…  Hike through a protected rain forest… And that’s just for starters.
    Sarangani is divided into two districts and is intersected by the composite city of General Santos. Here, the adventures are vast and varied from mountain to sea.
Touted as the “Boracay of Mindanao,” Gumasa Beach in the old Indonesian settlement of Glan, has the powder white sand people go crazy for. If you’re looking for overcrowded bars, don’t go here. If you want to kick back and relax with a coconut in hand, then check this place out. It’s also well worth a dive or two.
Your jump off point: Lemlunay Resort in Maasim.  The Abyss, Maasim Reef and Sumbang Point are just a few of the reefs teeming with cabbage corals, juvenile white tip sharks, marine turtles, and butterfly fish.
And for the adrenaline junkie in you, stay in the township ofMaitum. Walk through bamboo hanging bridges and tube down the wild river Pangi. This isn’t  for the fainthearted!
Or hike through the rainforested Barangay Zion and spelunk in one of its many caves. This town is so old, archaeologists have found 2,000-year-old burial jars in its caves!  These terracotta jars with faces, arms and legs and are so unique they were deemed National Cultural Treasures. Find these in the Maitum CapitolMuseum among other artifacts.
For a closer look at the lives of the indigenous B’laan, visitLemlifew Village.  Established by the Lemlifew Women’s Tribal Association, the cultural village houses are samples of B’laan architecture. Here you can learn the ways of the B’laan including their music, song and dress.
This is Saragani just for starters. For an in-depth look, explore, engage and get lost in the area for a little – or a long-while

The seat of government of the Province of Sarangani, Alabel features many investment opportunities as well as featuring some of the best beaches in the Philippines.

The long stretch of coastline makes it ideal for aquaculture venture while its vast plains and rolling hills are suited for housing, eco–tourism and agri-industrial opportunities.

There are several resorts, notably A Montana Resort, which boasts of world-class amenities and delectable cuisine.
Alabel has vast lands available suited for both the upscale and mass housing industries.
The first-ever PPP (Public-Private Partnership) initiated housing project in Sarangani opened its doors to the first batch of occupants in January 2012. Called as "The Capitol Residences", it is the housing project of the provincial government, in joint venture with Home Development Mutual Fund (HDMF) and Sarangani Land and Development Corporation, which translates the commitment of provincial leaders to provide better shelter through medium grade but affordable housing facility for its employees.
Merely a 10-minute drive from General Santos City, more and more people are opting to settle in Alabel in order to enjoy the idyllic and serene ambiance the town has to offer, devoid of the stress that urban living typically provides. And finally, some of the best beaches in the Philippines are just a few minutes' drive from the town center.
